As Daiba no Jinzō (on the right) spies on his adversary Itamiya Jūbei in the foreground of this image, the center is occupied by distant trees and mountains illuminated by a faint glow. Unusually, this scene is set at dusk: the sun has just set and the moon is rising but the stars are not yet visible.
