The scene is dominated by a towering Mount Fuji in the background, adding a sense of grandeur. The use of vibrant colors, delicate lines, and skillful perspective create a sense of depth and tranquility. This artwork is a prime example of the ukiyo-e genre, known for its portrayal of everyday life and landscapes.
