The long, horizontal painting depicts a riverboat journey scene. A boat floats on a river that runs from the bottom-left to the center-right. A long bridge connects land on the left to a raised walkway. Trees line the riverbank and a boat travels on the river. There are buildings on the left side. The background features a mountain range on the left and a black sky on the right. The scene is rendered in shades of beige and gold on a black background. Two columns of Japanese text appear on the right side.
