The image depicts a traditional Japanese woodblock print titled "Shower at Shōno" by Utagawa Hiroshige. The scene shows three men walking down a sloping road on a rainy day. The men are wearing traditional Japanese clothing, including blue shorts, and have large bundles on their backs. They are holding various objects, including a closed umbrella and a large fan. The men are positioned on a blue-green road that slopes downward to the right. The road is lined with small trees and bushes. In the background, there are more trees and a building with a tiled roof. The sky is gray and rainy, with rain streaking down from the top of the image. There is Japanese text in the top-left corner and a small seal or stamp on the bottom-left side. The image has a beige border around the edges.
