Kakegawa by Utagawa Hiroshige: A Japanese landscape scene with a tree, torii gate, and people. The image shows a large tree with a thick trunk and sparse branches, standing on the left side. To the right of the tree is a tall, dark brown torii gate. Beside the tree is a large stone lantern. A person wearing a conical hat and carrying a bundle walks on a paved path beside the tree. In the background, there are several people working in a field, some bending over and others pulling a cart. The field is filled with short green plants. There are hills in the distance. The sky above is light orange and fades to light gray. There is Japanese writing on a red banner on the top right and on the left side of the image.
