Ten paintings of Japanese ceder trees, a field of reeds, gigantic pine trees, willow trees by a stream, and a waterfall are refreshingly rendered with the strokes of a brush. Judging from the signature on the painting of the waterfall (in the last part of this album), these paintings were completed by Ike-no-Taiga when he was forty-one in 1743 (13th year of Horeki). In this small picture, blue-green and ultramarine are combined with gold paint. All the artistry and technique of Ike-no-Taiga are evident. The foreword and afterword were written by Yagi Sonsho. Each of the ten paintings, written in gold on navy paper, has a poem with Chinese characters (shichigon-zekku).
