A horizontally oriented color woodblock print depicts several figures in a tan landscape of muted brown and green. From left to right, three figures gather near a wooden bridge, one carrying a fishing net. In the center, a woman with a child on her back stands facing another woman holding a bundle. To the right, a woman sits at a small table beneath tall trees. A vertical crease divides the composition.
