Summary

DescriptionTosa Mitsuoki—Portrait of Murasaki Shikibu.jpg
English: Portrait-Icon of Murasaki Shikibu (Murasaki Shikibu zu), 17th century, by Tosa Mitsuoki. Murasaki Shikibu appears poised to begin writing her tale, pausing as if in mid-thought. Her head tilts away from her desk, while her trancelike stare is directed slightly upward, toward the calligraphy sheets in the upper portion of the painting. The inscriptions list the four stages of Tendai Buddhist contemplation (shimon) that Murasaki was said to have mastered, along with two of her waka (thirty-one-syllable poems) that speak to life’s impermanence (mujōkan).
Français : Copie de Tosa Mitsuoki (1617–1691). Portrait de Murasaki Shikibu, portant un jūnihitoe. Peinture, XVIIe siècle. Collection de la société Ishiyama. On rapporte que la poétesse Murasaki Shikibu s'étant retirée pour la prière, une nuit d'août, fut inspirée par le reflet de la pleine lune sur la surface du lac. C'est ainsi qu'elle se mit à écrire le Dit du Gengi.
