Woodblock print, color on paper. Roofs of buildings fill most of the lower half of the image. The roofs are tiled and brown. The building on the right has a triangular gable and a person sitting on the roof. Two people on the roof hold a string attached to a kite flying in the air. Another kite flies nearby. The buildings have yellow walls with vertical lines. There is a body of water in the background with green trees on the shore. A large snow-capped mountain is behind the water. The sky fades from dark blue at the top to light yellow at the horizon. There are vertical Japanese characters in a white rectangle on the top left and on both vertical yellow pillars on the bottom.
