This tranquil ukiyo-e print captures a serene night scene over a small island dotted with pine trees, bathed in the soft, glowing light of a full moon. The calm water reflects the moon's shimmering path, leading the eye gently toward the dark silhouette of the island. The delicate gradations of blues and greens merge seamlessly in the sky and water, evoking the quiet stillness of dusk. The artist employs subtle, restrained brushwork to create a harmonious balance between the silhouetted trees and the luminous moonlight, imparting a sense of peaceful solitude.

The composition's minimalism emphasizes negative space, allowing the viewer to absorb the gentle ripple of the water and the calming presence of nature under night’s veil. The traditional Japanese aesthetic is palpable here, blending simplicity with emotional depth—a moment suspended in time. Created in 1919, this print reflects the artist's mastery of color layering and texture, characteristic of the Shin-hanga movement that sought to revive and modernize ukiyo-e techniques. The scene invites contemplation and a quiet appreciation of natural beauty, stirring a gentle nostalgia for timeless landscapes.
