Color woodblock print; overall: 52 x 23 cm (20 1/2 x 9 1/16 in.). A high-ranking minister, Toru (822-895) was the son of an emperor. In this scene, he enjoys the company of two other men in his landscape garden overlooking the water. Here Hokusai may have illustrated a poem by Toru that mentions boats floating on the water in bright moonlight, shaded by the pines.
