Scroll image, vertically divided into two scenes. In the upper field are gentlemen meeting on a journey, with their grooms and horses, with female figures in the background. In the lower part of the picture we can peer into the interior of a pagoda: the female figure plays an instrument, the male figure listens. Both pictures are accompanied by an inscription. Hand-coloured, Hàng Trống print.
