Poem by Chūnagon Yakamochi (Ōtomo no Yakamochi), from the series One Hundred Poems Explained by the Nurse (Hyakunin isshu uba ga etoki)
A Japanese woodblock print depicts a boat on water. The boat has a curved hull with a pointed bow and a flat stern. Two people wearing blue clothing are on the boat, one near the bow and one near the stern. The boat has two masts with no sails and a small cabin with blue and red walls and a yellow and white window. A tree with reddish-brown leaves is on the left. The background shows a body of water, a distant shoreline, and a pink and beige sky. A color palette is at the bottom. Japanese characters appear in a blue rectangle in the top-right corner.
