About this work

A bearded man in a dark robe sits on a wooden veranda beneath a pine branch, cradling a biwa lute while a large pale moon hangs in a teal evening sky. The composition follows the traditional Japanese woodblock print format, with a pink title cartouche and a calligraphic label at the upper right. This print, titled The moon's four strings, is by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi and dates from 1885 to 1892.
