Woodblock print depicts a Japanese landscape. A dirt road winds from bottom left up to center. The road is bordered on the left by a steep green hill. A person carries a large bundle on their back. A group of people sit under a yellow thatched roof structure. The background shows a body of water with a city skyline on the horizon. Trees with distinctive umbrella-like canopies are scattered throughout the foreground and middle ground. One tree stands alone on the right hillside. A red building is visible in the distance on the left. The sky above transitions from dark purple at the top to beige. Japanese characters appear in black ink on the top right and left. A red banner with Japanese characters hangs from the top right.
