Go Shun (1752-1811)

'Hare with Pestle in the Full Moon', Japan, late Edo period, early 19th CE. The hare is most frequently depicted in the moon pounding rice with a pestle to make rice cakes. This is because the Japanese words for rice-pounding and for full moon are both pronounced 'mochizuki'. Woodblock print surimono (prints issued in special, limited editions for the enjoyment of a close circle of friends and associates), 384 x 524 mm. AC 1993,0405,0.1.
