"The Cloth-Fulling Jewel River, a Famous Place in Settsu Province (Tōi no Tamagawa, Settsu no meisho)" is a woodblock print (ukiyo-e) by Suzuki Harunobu. It depicts two women working on a cloth-fulling process, a traditional method of cleaning and shrinking fabric. The work is part of an untitled series of Six Jewel Rivers, a set of prints that depict scenes from various parts of Japan. Created in the 1760s, this work is characteristic of Harunobu's style, using muted colors and delicate lines to depict everyday scenes of Japanese life. The print shows the two women working against a muted background, illustrating the peaceful and elegant nature of their labor.
