One of the screens has a special focus on falconry, while the other depicts people playing the board games go and shōgi. Dogs and monkeys, one of which has caught the eye of a finely attired youth, heighten the appeal of the scene.- formerly in collection of Prince Tokugawa; bought for Museum by Mr. S.
