Nine Japanese people in kimonos and robes hang out on a wooden deck viewing Mt. Fuji in the center background.　

A group of five adults in various poses stand in front of a railing with their backs to us. One lady in a kimono holds a child’s hand. A skinny man on left grips the railing as he points to Mt Fuji. The mountain looks glorious in the distance with its snow cap surrounded by light blue sky and bright green land around it. The frame of a wooden structure with window is on the right where two travelers sit with large packs. The print is rendered primarily in blues and spring greens. Calligraphy in upper left.
