Woodblock print depicts a serene Japanese scene. A blue river curves from the lower-left corner toward the center. A low stone wall lines the riverbank on the left. Dark spots are scattered on and near the river's surface. A beige path runs along the right riverbank. A wooden fence borders the path on the right. A red-and-blue gate stands near the bottom-right corner. Two people stand near the gate; one wears a blue outfit and the other a red headscarf and black outfit. A man wearing a conical hat fish on the path to the left; a fishing pole held high. A curved hill with a few trees occupies the left edge. A leafless tree stands on the right. In the background, buildings line the horizon. The sky transitions from blue at the top to pink near the horizon. Japanese characters appear in the top center and on the hill.
