Happy Fisherfolk
A crowded woodblock print of stylized waves filled with fishermen in small boats, nets and baskets, and figures at work on rocky shores. In the center, a two-story pavilion with women at windows stands above the water, while willows and a red cartouche with the title frame the scene.
Look closer: A flock of birds flies above the pavilion roofline.
