Comments - Attractive scene of Prince Genji visiting a beauty at a country house. He stands in the center, grinning as he looks back over his shoulder, his page handing his sword to the woman behind him. At right, a beauty stands in the doorway of a garden gate, smiling and shyly holding her sleeve to her chest. She wears a pretty red kimono shaded to green and decorated with chrysanthemums. At left, a matron holds a softly glowing lantern. A full moon glows high in the night sky, the landscape dotted with autumn grasses and flowers. A charming design with fine bokashi shading.
