The cliff of the peninsula Miura sticking ahead, and rocks and pine trees, behind them, you can see Mt.Fuji in the sunset glow. This is an elegant view like an auspicious painting. A lot of boats are heading back to the fisherman's village. This subject is referring to a traditional subject, "Shosho Hakkei" in China. Hiroshige also produced "Omi Hakkei" and "Edo Kinko Hakkei", referring to Shosho Hakkei, and some of them include the same view as this artwork, called "Empokihan".
