Kyôu (1810-84) from Bungo Province (present-day Ôita Prefecture) was a southern-style painter who studied under the guidance of Tanomura Chikuden (1777-1835), also a native of Bungo Province. Many of Kyôu's landscape paintings resemble Chikuden's style. He learned Chinese epic poetry from Hoashi Banri (1778-1852) and Rai Sanyô (1780-1832). This representative piece by Kyôu demonstrates his careful brushwork and bears a Chinese quatrain with seven-character lines in his own handwriting. According to the inscription, it was made in the tenth month of 1865 (Keiô 1) when Kyôu was 56 years old. This work and Lotus Pond in the Summer constitute a pair of hanging scrolls.
