Prompt

16:9 format of a delicate ink and watercolor wash rendering on rough handmade paper of poem number 7, Abe no Nakamaro, of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu: "When I look up at The wide-stretched plain of heaven, Is the moon the same That rose on Mount Mikasa In the land of Kasuga?" The image shows a very large, pink rising full moon on the low horizon, so clear that the craters and marks on the moon are visible in full detail. The sky is a deepening mid-blue and extends to the edges of theimage. The first star, the evening star, is visible at the edge of the image. The landscape over which the moon is rising is hilly. The image focuses fully on the singular motif of the rising moon. Exquisite Japanese folio.
