Prompt

16:9 format of a delicate ink and watercolor wash rendering on rough handmade paper of poem number 21, Sosei Hōshi, of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu: "It was only because you said you would come right away that I have waited these long months, till even the wan morning moon has come out." The image shows a standing Japanese woman of antiquity gazing out a a green, hilly landscape in early morning, with a pale waning moon barely visiblein the light-blue morning sky of dawn. She is a peasant, and is wearing a simple, rough, indigo-dyed cotton kosode (forerunner of the kimono). The green, hilly landscape is strongly patterned, as is the pale blue morning sky. Exquisite Japanese folio.
