Español: Luna de otoño sobre el río Tama, Hiroshige

Una estampa xilográfica en color muestra una luna llena que se eleva sobre un amplio río al atardecer, con un sauce llorón inclinado sobre el agua. Pequeñas barcas y dos figuras en la orilla ocupan el primer plano, mientras colinas lejanas y hileras de árboles bordean la otra orilla. Un poema caligráfico llena la parte superior izquierda.

Pequenos barcos e duas figuras na margem ocupam o primeiro plano, enquanto colinas distantes e fileiras de árvores margeiam a outra margem. Um poema caligrafado preenche a parte superior esquerda.
