Moon: Returning Home - Charming view of a beauty and a young boy returning home after a day's work in the fields. A large basket of grasses is strapped to her back, and she carries a sickle in her hand. The hem of her plaid kimono is tucked up for easier walking, revealing a lavender lining and a red tie-dyed under robe. A blue cloth is tied around her head. The boy smiles up at her as he gestures, a stick threaded with mushrooms in his hand. A full moon rises above the horizon, and a river rushes past a waterwheel at right. Lovely color and soft shading in this attractive scene.
