In this particular print, the cormorant and snowy herons are rendered with fine lines and attention to detail, characteristic of Utamaro's style. The birds are portrayed in a manner that suggests movement and interaction, while the accompanying verses add a layer of cultural context and entertainment, inviting the viewer to contemplate the connection between the visual and literary elements.

As a work from the Edo period, this piece not only reflects the artistic practices of the time but also provides insight into the period's cultural fascination with nature and the interplay between different art forms.
