Description
Sugawara no. 8: Michizane is here shown in exile in the island of Kiushu riding on a black ox and reading to his driver. The two figures behind fighting on the seashore cannot be identified. Tokihira does send a man to murder Michizane while in exile, who is killed by Umeo, but they do not refer to this incident, as neither figure represents Umeo.
