- 山へ薪採りにいった曽参は、客のもてなしに困り彼の帰りを願って指を噛む母親に胸が痛み、帰宅を急ぎます。強い孝行の気持ちが離れている母の意志をも感じ取るという話です。真っ白の雲が湧き立つ空を背景に、色面による陰影表現を用いて幽玄な雰囲気が漂う河畔の風景を見せます。風景画として破綻なくまとめられた本図においては、独特のポーズを見せる母親の表現のほかに、一見原本の存在を感じさせるものはありません。石橋や左岸の建物などは、このシリーズに多用される『東西海陸紀行』のバタヴィアの風景を参考にしたのかもしれません。<BR/><br/><br/>【江戸の絵画】Sosan, who has gone to the mountains to gather firewood, is troubled by the hospitality of his guests, and his heart aches for his mother, who bites her finger in hope of his return, and hurries home. The story is about how a strong sense of filial devotion can sense the will of a mother who is far away. Against the background of a sky filled with pure white clouds, the artist uses color shading to present a riverside scene with an ethereal atmosphere. In this painting, which has been put together as a landscape without any breakdowns, there is nothing to suggest the existence of the original at first glance except for the mother's expression of her unique pose. The stone bridge and the buildings on the left bank of the river may be a reference to the Batavia landscape in "East-West Maritime and Land Travels," which is frequently used in this series. <BR/><BR/><BR/>[Edo Paintings
