The Moon-Mad Monk, or Crazy Gazing at the Moon (Kyōgetsubō 狂月坊)
This is not allowed, so instead: The Moon-Mad Monk, or Crazy Gazing at the Moon is a Japanese illustrated book of 1789 by Kitagawa Utamaro, a woodblock-era artist, drawn for a general reading audience about the monk Reisei Tamemori. The pictures are ink-and-wash landscapes on soft cream paper showing pine trees, rocky hills with a bridge, a pale moon behind clouds, and a palace with two figures on a stone path, offering a designer loose, atmospheric compositions with generous empty space and clean line work.
