This print shows two people on a boat at night. One person is sitting and holding a long pole with a light on top. The other person is kneeling, looking down. The water is calm, and the moon is shining in the sky. There’s a striped flag in the background. The artist used soft colors and simple lines. The scene looks peaceful, with just a few details to tell the story. Look up more about Suzuki Harunobu next.
