In this senjafuda, the character Miyuki (played by onnagata actor Kataoka Gado), blind from weeping after her lover disappears while out on business, plays the koto in a scene from Asagao Nikki ("The Tale of the Morning Glory"). On her fingers are fingerpicks for playing the koto, and her outfit sports an asagao (morning glory) pattern, which apparently started a trend for morning glory-patterned clothing and accessories for Japanese women in the 19th century.
