On this panel from a byobu foldable screen, an unidentified artist painted Mt. Mikasa (rolling hills behind the Grand Kasuga Shrine in Nara) in dark ink on a guilt screen panel. Konoe Nobutada cited two poems from the Collection of the Ancient and Modern Japanese Poems (Jp. Kokin Wakashu, Chapter 4, “Autumn I”) and the Later Gleanings of Japanese Poems (Jp. GoShui Wakashu, Chapter 14, “Love IV”). They are written in bold scrawls scattered across the panel. This was a style only an achieved calligrapher would assume. Mt. Mikasa is depicted with a clear border with vertical lines representing young cypress trees, while tall pampas grass is seen on the right with a pale moon in the sky above. A mountain is seen in the distance. The liberated and rhythmical paint strokes are that of a Hasegawa School painter, and the inscription, by Konoe Nobutada (1565-1614). Regrettably, some gilt gold has flaked off over the centuries as this work has been passed down. Nevertheless, Nobutada’s hand matches well with the bold and gorgeous painting, which is characteristic of the Momoyama Period.
Autumn at its saddest, rustling through the leaves and moving on alone deep into the mountains, I hear the lonely stag belling for his doe.
