A vertically oriented woodblock print shows a person in a brimmed hat and trousers climbing a vertical plank fence. Standing on a rounded mound, they hook one leg over the top edge and lean toward a tree heavy with fruit. Dark carved lines and intricate hatching define the figure and surroundings against the light-brown wood grain. The figure's profile is outlined as they peer at clusters of fruit in the upper left.
