A blue and white woodblock print depicts a mountain in the background. The mountain has a rounded peak. It appears in the distance and across water. Two people are on a rocky outcrop in the foreground. One person bends over. The other person has their back to the viewer and wears a dark top and white bottom. They hold lines that extend to the right. The rocky outcrop juts out into rough water. The water is depicted with wavy lines. There are white waves in the foreground. Japanese characters are in a vertical rectangle on the left.
