Okazaki, Tenshin no Hashi by Utagawa Hiroshige: A long, elevated, wooden bridge with railings on both sides curves across water, with people on it. The bridge is reddish-brown and has an arch shape. The bridge's supports are visible below it in the water. People on the bridge are wearing traditional Japanese clothing, with some carrying items. There are mountains in the background, with one large mountain being dark gray and partially shaded. In the distance, there are buildings on the right side and what appears to be a field on the left. The sky above transitions from yellowish at the top to white near the horizon. The water under the bridge is blue with a lighter blue and green area near the shore. There are some plants growing near the water. Japanese characters are written in the top-left and bottom-right corners of the image. A red seal or stamp is visible in the top-left corner.
