Koya Jewel River in Kii Province - Lovely design of a woman traveler pausing near the Koya Jewel River in Kii Province. She smiles as she looks back over her shoulder, a walking staff in one hand and a straw hat in the other. She wears several layers of kimono and has a blue and white towel draped over one shoulder. A blossoming cherry tree overhangs the river, which foams as it rushes past some rocks. A charming scene with soft shading in the mountains and sky.
