説明：
After the death of the eighth Ashikaga shogun Yoshimasa (1436-1490), his retirement villa in Kyoto, “Villa of the Eastern Hills,” was converted into a Zen temple named Jisho-ji after Yoshimasa’s Buddhist name. The main two-story building is popularly called Ginkaku-ji (“Temple of the Silver Pavilion”), although the planned silver-leaf covering of its exterior never materialized. The lower, verdant section of the garden at Ginkaku-ji can be enjoyed by strolling around its Brocade-Mirror Pond (Kinkyo-chi) or by viewing it from inside the pavilion. As shown in this print the upper section is a "kare-sansui" (“withered-mountain-water”), dry landscape garden with white gravel raked into a pattern of waves ("ginsha-dan"; lit. “silver sand and open sea”) and shaped into a replica of Mount Fuji, a feature called "kogetsu-dai" (“platform facing the moon”).
