About this work

This print shows a group of people sitting on a wooden porch by a river. A woman in bright robes stands near them. Behind them, a blue roof has white patterns. Outside, a mountain looms in the distance. The sign above them reads Japanese characters. One man holds a fan, another leans on a stick. The colors are mostly blues, greens, and earthy tones.
