Description
Above, the hunting ground is marked off with white barricades. The huntsmen chase deer, bears and other animals. Across the centre is a ravine or stream. Below it, many people stroll and take tea in a pleasure garden. Bottom right, workmen are building a (Shinto?) temple from rough timbers brought in a cart. The workmen have Japanese characters marked on the backs of their shirts
