ekphrasis : a poem in response to a work of art


collection : FIAPCE  
We don't know the name(s) of the painter-poet(s) of this ethereal silk and paper Japanese scroll. The image is a well established genre scene of sky, moon and wild geese in flight.

The great painter-poet Yosa Buson (1716-1783) wrote of such:
一行の雁や端山に月を印す 
ikkou no kari ya hayama ni tsuki o in su 
Calligraphy of geese
against the sky --
the moon seals it. 
- translation by Robert Haas

ekphrHaHasis : a poem of laughter in response to a projection-space as work of art

The minor drawer-poet 'Bonza View' on the Wild Geese of TAR :
This ghostly line,
in passing  --
TAR  
- translation by FIAPCE
