Ike TaigaJapan, 1723–1776Darf man es sehen?
Cleveland, Vereinigte Staaten
Es gehört zur Sammlung, ist derzeit aber nicht ausgestellt.
In the upper left corner of his painting, Ike Taiga has inscribed a poem by the Chinese poet Zhang Ji (張繼) (733?–779). It reads as follows:
The moon has set and crows caw as frost fills the sky.
A riverside maple and fishing lights confront my uneasy sleep.
Beyond the walls of Gusu lies Hanshan Temple.
Its midnight bell reaches my traveler’s boat.
The traveler’s boat appears through dense foliage in the foreground. A maple and two fishing boats are in the middle ground. In the distance is Hanshan Temple.
