Description
A faint rainbow arcs down through a sky of dark grey-black clouds tinged with pink, meeting a stand of reddish-brown trees on a small riverbank. Below, three figures in a wooden boat move across pale blue-grey water—one poling, two seated—while a thatched-roof house sits among the trees and reeds line the shore behind them. "Twilight at Hashiba," a woodblock print by Kobayashi Kiyochika, renders the scene in muted pink, grey, and brown tones with the artist's seal visible at right.
