Yoshiwara Courtesan with Samurai Customer, from Selections from the Brocade Quarter (E-awase kingaishō)

A prostitute and an enthusiastic samurai customer make love while surrounded by gorgeous robes and furnishings. A kimono rack with a kosode draped over it is at left, in the background is a folding screen decorated with chrysanthemums, and at right is a portable tobacco set. The customer reveals his samurai rank by equating her value to his payment in koku of rice: I feel more gratified than if I'd conquered a land worth a million koku of rice. As long as no one comes, I want to stay just like this. She urges him to focus: Please, stop babbling and start going in earnest. Oh, yes, that's it. He replies: Ah, hold it up a little stronger. You're blessed with a true high quality vagina. It's so superb I can't even express it with words.
