summercomfort | (no subject)

laa dee daaa... supposedly writing paper on this painting for Objects of Japanese History. So far I've spent one paragraph doing a visual reading and one paragraph talking a little about sankin kotai. Which means it's 2 pages. I'm really not good at paragraphing. I'd pick a subject and write a paragraph on it. But anyway, now this paper really doesn't have any point. I mean, my sorta-point is that this painting comes from a very in-between source: someone who's not really anything. Not a professional, not a Zen amateur, not a print-maker, and the painting subject is not decorative, is not literati, is not amusement/mitate-e, and isn't current event political commentary. Um, yeah. So what is he?
