The image depicts a serene scene with Mt. Fuji in the background. The mountain is a large, symmetrical, triangular shape with a pointed summit. It appears hazy and has a light color. In the foreground, there are several sailboats on the water, their sails billowing. The boats appear small compared to the mountain. The color palette of the image is muted, with shades of beige, gray, and black dominating the scene. There is a vertical line of Japanese characters on the bottom right and a small red seal. The background of the image is a light beige color.
