The image shows a book opened to two facing pages. The pages are yellowed with age and have a thin black border around the edges. The artwork depicts a landscape in black and white. The right page shows a large mountain with steep sides rising from behind a low-lying cloud or fog bank. The mountain fills the right half of the right page. The left page shows the top of another mountain range on the horizon, over a water surface. The near side of the water on the right page shows a steep slope with several trees. The slope leads down to the water. The lower part of the slope on the right page and the top of the water on both pages are obscured by fog or clouds. The right page has Japanese characters written vertically near the top right corner. The background behind the book is plain white.
