A boat with a curved bow and a flat stern is on choppy water. Three women and a child are in the boat. The woman on the left stands and holds a long pole. The woman in the middle sits and wears a red kimono. The child sits between the woman in the middle and the woman on the right. The woman on the right bends forward, partially in the water. Two small children are in the water, on either side of the boat. The background shows choppy water and a gray sky. The image has a sepia color tone. The women wear traditional Japanese hairstyles and kimonos.
