A horizontally oriented woodblock carving in dark brown wood depicts a village scene. Deeply gouged, geometric houses with peaked roofs and timber-framing patterns fill the composition. A multi-storied building rises in the center background, while a large house with diagonal structural beams sits on the right. Overlapping rooflines crowd the left foreground. The rough, chiseled surface shows prominent wood grain and heavy, jagged textures throughout the dark scene.
