Clark 1992
Hiroshige was a master of misty suggestion in his landscapes, and this slight work shows a scene on the Yodo River near Osaka, with two sailboats passing in front of Yodo Castle, beyond which are clouds and hills in the distance. To the right a village nestles among reeds on the shore. The tower of Yodo Castle, with dolphin finials at each end of the roof, was also featured by Hokusai in the design 'Moon on the Yodo River' from his print series 'Snow, Moon and Flowers' (c. 1832).

Asahi 1996
広重は風景を描いた作品に霞を暗示することに長けていた。この小品では大坂の近くの淀川の景色を題材に、淀城の脇をゆく二艘の帆舟、はるか向こうに山並みと雲を描いている。右の方には川岸の葦の間に身を寄せ合うような村が見える。淀城の天守には、屋根の両端にしゃちほこが見えるが、そのながめは天保3年（1832）頃と思われる北斎の揃物「雪月花」の「淀川（月）」でも取り上げられている。
