Totoya Hokkei (1780-1850), Le sanctuaire principal, époque Edo, XIXe siècle

Gerhard Pulverer (b. 1930)

The poem by Shinshotei Sanenori has been translated by Roger Keyes:

 

Spring is young

so the colour of the screen of mist

on Enoshima

is pale

like the plum and cherry shells.

 

Haru wakami

kasumu byobu no

Enoshima ya

iro mada usuki

ume sakuragai

 

Another impression of the same surimono is in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, accession number 11.19822.
