The image depicts a traditional Japanese woodblock print. The scene shows a large crowd of people on a bridge and on the shore, looking out over a body of water. The bridge is orange and spans the bottom-left corner to the center of the image. The people are dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, with many wearing kimonos in shades of green, orange, and black. The background features a line of trees along the water's edge and a few boats on the water. The sky above is a light brown color. The print is done in muted colors with visible signs of aging. Vertical Japanese text runs along the right edge.
