Description

Two people are in a boat, enjoying fishing: a man at the front and a woman behind him. The man has just caught a fish and will later place it into the net floating beside the woman.

Harunobu did a significant challenge in depicting the rising (or setting) sun, with its glow radiating and filling the upper part of the image, partially covered by embossed clouds.

In the foreground, he has even illustrated the bubbling waves so vividly that we can almost hear the sound.
