Catalog note / 解説

"Kyodo Risshi no Motoi" (Heroes and heroines who have been regarded as standards of moral leadership and success). Blind scholar, Koho, was teaching "the Tale of Genji" at one night. Because a gust of wind blew out the candle light, the students could not keep reading the textbook. The blind master jokingly commented that it was not convenient being "able-eyed". Everyone laughed.
