Ukiyo-e woodblock print on beige paper: a long wooden ferry crossing a calm river in autumn rain, three passengers under red, indigo, and ochre paper umbrellas, a straw-hatted ferryman poling at the stern, a red maple tree upper left, a misty grey-blue mountain behind, and fine diagonal rain lines over everything.
A Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock print of a small wooden ferry boat crossing a wide, calm river in autumn rain, in a wide landscape 16:9 composition on warm beige paper with visible fibers and wood grain texture. A long, low wooden boat sits in the center right of the frame, carrying three seated passengers under round oiled paper umbrellas, from left to right one vermilion red, one deep indigo blue, and one ochre yellow, the passengers wearing simple robes in indigo, ochre, and rust. At the stern on the right, a ferryman stands in a pale blue-grey robe and a wide conical straw hat, pushing a long wooden pole diagonally into the water. In the upper left, a red maple tree reaches into the frame with clusters of bright orange-red leaves, above a grassy, rocky near bank with tall reeds in the lower left. In the background, a misty grey-blue volcano-shaped mountain rises behind a hazy far shore with soft tree silhouettes on the right. Fine diagonal rain lines fall across the whole scene, the river shows gentle horizontal ripple lines, and the sky has a soft bokashi gradient from dark slate grey at the top to pale beige near the horizon. Flat color areas, fine black outlines, muted indigo, ochre, vermilion, and grey palette, quiet and contemplative mood. No text, no seals, no signature, no border.
