Ink and light color on paper dated 1913 with applied gold flake in a purple border decorated with gold designs enclosed in a black lacquer wooden frame. A scholar stares from the window of his hermitage, perhaps remembering the fading back of his friend as he wandered west away on the adjacent screen. Yet now the plums are blossoming, the promise of spring in the air. A lone boat in the far distance serves to accentuate his solitude, yet, is this perhaps his friend, returning from afar?

A pair of six panel byobu by Abbot of Daitokuji, Priest Sohan Gempo (Murasakino Shoun) dating from the Meiji to Taisho period. The subject is an old song used to teach the basics of literacy as it is a panagram, containing every letter in the Japanese alphabet once; a popular subject for Zen artists for its simplicity and usefulness.
