In this print, the artist Fujii Teisa presented a charming view of a gathering of poets, who drink, converse, and read poetry while seated on a red blanket. This idealized view of such a gathering is based on older visual prototypes, and Teisa took this image from a model drawn by Taniguchi Gesso (1773–1865), who specialized in figural sketches.
Teisa was a haiku poet and follower of Suganuma Kushibuchi (1747–1834), from whom he took the name Hananoya, with which he signed this work. By signing the poem to the far left, he also marked himself as the host of this particular gathering.
