The camera sits low, about hip height, tilted a few degrees so the shrine's stone step runs diagonally up from the lower left corner — from below she reads as a figure at the top of a short flight of worn granite steps, weight rocked back onto her right heel, left foot forward on the step above and turned out, so her hips are canted and the whole body twists a quarter-turn away from the lens even before the head goes further. Her head is turned hard to her left, chin up and away, eyes cutting sideways toward the cedar trees at the frame's right edge — she will not look at the viewer, and the low angle makes the cut of her gaze read as defiance rather than shyness.
Both arms are clamped across her chest: the right forearm laid horizontally over the top of her bust, the left forearm crossing under it, each hand gripping the opposite upper arm through the cloth just above the elbow, so the wide red-trimmed sleeve cuffs bunch and fold over each other at the front and the fabric of the torso is pulled taut and creased between her arms and her shoulders. The bust is enormous and clearly visible in spite of the arms — it surges up above the right forearm and swells out at the sides beneath her elbows, the white and red cloth stretched in tight radiating wrinkles from where the arms press in, one visible curve riding up near her collarbone. Her shoulders are hunched up hard toward her ears, and that hunch is what carries the embarrassment while the face carries the anger.
Her face: a full flush spread from both cheeks to the tips of her ears and down her throat, brows dragged down and together over eyes that glare sideways with the whites showing, lips pressed then parted a fraction over clenched teeth, one corner of the mouth pulled down. Short strands of black hair have slipped forward across her flushed cheek and hang there, unstirred; the loose tails of her red hair bow have swung forward over her right shoulder with the turn. Her feet are planted wide and braced on the stone.
The setting is a shrine precinct in clear autumn afternoon light: pale granite flagstones sweep up toward a vermilion torii just behind her left shoulder, its pillars cropped by the top of the frame; a wooden offering box and a stone lantern sit out of focus behind her right hip, thick dark green cedars closing the background, gravel and a scattering of dry red leaves on the steps. Low sun strikes from the frame's left at a shallow angle, lighting the outer edge of her right forearm, her left cheek's rim and the leading edges of the stone steps; the front of her body falls into a warm half-shadow and she casts a short, hard shadow down the steps toward the viewer. Palette is restrained to vermilion, white, warm weathered granite grey and cedar green, with her red hair tubes and bow the loudest notes; the light is golden and dry. Windless, held-breath tautness, mortified fury.
