Description:
"Tsuki Nijuhakkei no Uchi; Yumiharizuki" (Twenty-eight Views of the Moon) Crescent moon peeks out in between the old rope bridge and a cascade in a deep mountain gouge. The Chinese poem reads, "At dawn, the moon flies for a while behind a thousand trees. Autumn rivers keep it distant from the numerous peaks in the West.".
