Woodblock print of a harbor scene. A body of water with boats is on the left. A large ship with two masts is in the foreground. Several smaller boats are scattered in the water. The water is blue-green. The sky is orange and pink, with some blue-green areas near the top right. A town is on the right side. The buildings have thatched roofs and are mostly one story. A road runs along the right side of the buildings. People are walking on the road, some carrying objects on their backs or in their hands. Trees are behind the buildings. Japanese writing is in the top left corner.
