Description:
"Tsuki Hyakushi; Harano no Tsuki" (One Hundred Aspects of the Moon; The Moon of the Moor) Fujiwara no Yasumasa (958 - 1036) was a famous musician. Here he plays his flute while walking back home in a moor. A man wanted to rob him his clothing but was enchanted by his music and ended up following him until his home. Then Yasumasa took notice of the robber, gave the man his robe and told him, "Next time, ask.".
