A group of boats, carrying large cargo barrels, sail on a river, one man on each outer boat poles the boat while several people sit or stand on the deck. The moon is in the pale blue sky, and people are wearing traditional clothing. A beige border surrounds the image. Vertical and horizontal Japanese characters are written on the top left. A red square stamp is left of center.
