Autumn Moon at Ishiyama (Ishiyama no shugetsu)

A color woodblock print shows a multi-tiered wooden pagoda-like building on a rocky, tree-covered cliff beside a calm lake, with a pale moon in the hazy sky above. Mountains recede along the left shore, and the framed composition has a small vertical Japanese inscription at upper right, reading as the title Ishiyama no shūgetsu.
