The Chofu Tama River in Musashi Province (from the series The Six Tama Rivers of the Floating World)
The image depicts a traditional Japanese woodblock print. Three women are shown. The woman on the left has long black hair and wears an orange and white kimono. She reaches into a large ceramic pot on the left. A smaller child in an orange kimono bends down on the right. The woman in the middle, wearing a white kimono with orange lining, leans over to look. A plant with long stems and orange flowers is behind them. The background resembles water, with wavy lines. A beige rectangle in the upper-left contains Japanese characters. More Japanese characters are on the bottom-right. A circular orange logo with white Japanese characters is in the lower-left corner.
