About this work

A ferry boat carries several passengers, some holding parasols, across a misty river while a boatman in a conical hat works the oar at the stern. Faint silhouettes of distant boats and a riverbank with trees appear in the pale, rain-softened background. The woodblock print by Kobayashi Kiyochika, dated 1884, is titled Spring Rain near the Great Riverbank: A Crossing Ferry Boat.
