Workers pick tea in the green fields and carry their harvest in baskets, while a horse is loaded beside a thatched shed and a stream winds through the scene. Above the fields and village roofs, a white Fuji rises under a pale blue sky. The print is one of the ten additional views Hokusai added to his Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, published around 1830–1832 by Nishimuraya Yohachi (Eijudō), and like the others it is printed with black outlines. Katakura in Suruga province was a tea-growing district at the foot of the mountain. Hokusai shows the busy work of the harvest from above, with the mountain watching over it; impressions vary in colour and condition.
This full-bleed edition prints the work edge to edge from a high-resolution scan of the original, very slightly cropped (a few percent at most) to fit the sheet. The gallery edition shows the whole work, uncropped. The original is in the public domain.
