Abalone Divers off the Coast of Ise, from an Untitled Landscape Series
Woodblock print depicts a group of men collecting Abalone. Two wooden boats are in the water. Four men are in the boat on the left side; two are fully clothed and two are in the water, wearing brief loincloth-style wraps. A fifth man is climbing out of the water towards the boat on the right. Three men are in the boat on the right; one is bent over at the waist while the other two are looking into the water. A scroll with Asian writing is in the top right corner, and more Asian writing is near the bottom left corner. A rocky shore with vegetation borders the water on the left and right edges. Vegetation protrudes from the bottom center of the image. Mountains are in the background. The sky is light brown.
