Oni watching Okame, peacefully sleeping the night before the Oniyarai Shinto ceremony (driving out evil spirits),
held every year on the third day of February.
One Oni, standing on another Oni's shoulder, is looking at her behind a screen, while the third is peeping through a sliding door.
The red beans used for the ritual the following day are ready in a tray near Okame's head.
