The painting depicts a serene evening scene in Fukagawa, with a dark blue sky and a few stars visible. In the foreground, a traditional Japanese building with a tiled roof is surrounded by trees and a fence. The atmosphere is peaceful, with a sense of stillness. The artist's use of color lithography creates a sense of depth and texture, with the blue and brown hues evoking a sense of calmness. The building and trees are rendered in detail, giving the impression of a tranquil setting. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artist Orlik, Emil.
