Description:
A young woman has fallen asleep at a table. On the table is an ink-stone, a cake of sumi (Chinese ink and a fude-tate (brush-holder) in which several brushes are standing. She is dreaming of Mt. Fuji, a falcon and three eggplants. To dream of these on the night after the first day of the year was thought to be good luck for the next year.
