A horizontal woodblock print of four travelers climbing on a hill in the foreground with two donkeys or horses with the Mount Fuji in the background. A tall tree and white clouds between Mount Fuji and the hill in the foreground. Red sky with white clouds in the background. Probably made much later because of the lack of details and change of colors from the original design. No publisher, date, or censor seals. Fukei ga
