The image depicts a traditional Japanese village scene. The background is a yellow-beige color with green shading towards the top. In the foreground, there are several houses with triangular, tiled roofs. The roofs are colored in shades of brown and green. Each house has a green and white window on the top section of the roof. The houses have a yellow base. In front of the houses, there are several trees with pink blossoms. To the left, there are two trees with long, dark green trunks. There is a blue stream running through the bottom of the image. The stream curves slightly and runs in front of the houses. The overall scene is simple and stylized.
