Hodogaya on the Tokaido (Tokaido Hodogaya), from the series "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fugaku sanjurokkei)"

A print shows a small caravan of travelers, with a horse and figures in a litter, journeying on a road in the foreground. Two of the figures wear wide, bowl-shaped hats, and one of them is shirtless. Another sits beside the litter, which is resting on the ground. Spindly trees, an open plain, and a lone snow-capped mountain in the distance make up the landscape, rendered in tones of light orange, deep blue, and deep green.
