Poem by Kanke (Sugawara Michizane) (colour woodblock print)
Two servants of the poet wait his bullock cart for their master to leave the Temple on mount Tamuke. Signed: Saki no Hokusai Manji. Publisher: Iseya Sanjir? (Eijud?). Censor's seal: kiwame. Poem 24: Kono tabi wa / nusa mo tariaezu / Tamukeyama /momiji no nishiki / kami no manimani (This time around / I couldnt even bring sacred streamers / Offering Hill / but if this brocade of autumn leaves / is to the gods liking . Transl. Joshua Mostow.) One of the few designs in the series to give the ancient poem a courtly setting, this print shows an imperial carriage parked outside a shrine, with servants, guards and decorated ox patiently awaiting the return of their passenger, as autumn leaves start to fall. The scene appears to be based on the circumstances behind the poems composition. In ad 898, Kan Ke (Sugawara no Michizane, ad 845903) accompanied Emperor Uda (ad 887897) on an autumn excursion to Offering Hill in Nara, and recognizing the beauty of the surrounding foliage, imagined that a brocade of autumn leaves might serve as a suitable gift for the gods.
