Six-panel screen painting depicting a lively scene with numerous small figures. The background is gold with dark clouds and a mountain range in the distance. A large tree with green leaves and a thick trunk occupies the right side. Under the tree and in front of a building are approximately 100 small people in various poses, wearing traditional Japanese clothing in shades of white, blue, green, and red. Some figures are standing, sitting, or lying down; a few are on horses or interacting with animals. The building behind them has a green roof and decorative elements. The entire painting is framed in a dark brown border with an intricate pattern. The artist's name, Kano Einō, and the title, One Hundred Boys, are associated with this work.
