A clear autumn day, looking toward a snow-capped Mount Fuji. In the foreground, a slow-moving river flows past; on the opposite bank, a high wall conceals all but the upper floor of a traditional thatched-roof house. Nearby, trees and grasses are golden yellow with the turning season. Further on, Mount Fuji dominates the view, its snowy peak reflected in the river below.

Dusk falls at the the Phoenix Hall, part of the Byodo-in Temple in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture. In the foreground, the surface of the Aji-ike pond is still and calm; just beyond, one wing of the Phoenix Hall stands backed by tall trees, their leaves turning colour with the season. No people are visible, and everything seems peaceful and quiet. Above, the sky glows burnt orange and coral, with deeper evening beginning to colour the horizon.
