The scene features a clear rocky river flowing through the center, a small arched pedestrian bridge, a stone-paved riverside walkway with black railings on the left, and a large wooden ryokan on the right with warmly lit windows. Forested mountains and traditional buildings recede into the distance. Top-left panel labeled '春' shows spring with blooming cherry blossoms; top-right panel labeled '夏' shows lush green summer foliage; bottom-left panel labeled '秋' shows vivid red and orange autumn foliage; bottom-right panel labeled '冬' shows a snow-covered landscape with falling snow. Include sparse pedestrians along the left path. Each panel features its season kanji in white at the top-left corner. Maintain identical architecture, framing, and perspective across all four panels."
