Suzuki Harunobu (1725?-1770)
Women at the Seashore with Poem by Minamoto no Shigeyuki, from an untitled set of poems from the Thirty-six Immortal Poets, ca. 1766-67
Woodcut mitate-e (allusive picture) of two women at the seashore, one holding her hat in the high wind and looking at what her maid points to offshore, the wind, rock and waves representing the imagery in the poem by Minamoto no Shigeyuki (d. around 1000) in the cloud cartouche above, signed Suzuki Harunobu ga--very good impression, waves rendered by gauffrage, very good color, good condition
chuban tate-e: 10 7/8 x 8 1/8in. (26.6 x 20.7cm.)
The poem reads:
Kaze o itami
iwa utsu nami no
onore nomi
kudakete mono o
omou koro kana


Driven by the wind
waves break into spray on a rock--
alone I suffer
as my heart and contentment
smash into pieces.
