Description: This print is from the set 'Kacho Fugetsu (Beauties of Nature)' which consists of 20 Hiroshige design prints in ōtanzaku format published by Yuyudo in the 1970s, produced by the best engravers and printers at that time.

It's depicting a rooster, blossoming morning glories, and an umbrella perhaps left outside to dry. The poem in the upper left of the print reads, "When the cock crows it means we must part, where, at the crack of dawn, roosters cannot be heard!"
