The majority of Kodōjin’s albums date from the 1930s and follow the same format with a frontispiece, six leaves of alternating paintings and calligraphies, and a postscript. The paintings in this album are only rendered in ink. The postscript reads: 余以詩書画三拙自名焉此帖即是観者宜察微意所存不問其拙而可 I have named myself for poetry, calligraphy and painting, my Three Clumsinesses! This album is a perfect example. The viewer would do well to discern wherein my subtle meaning lies, without questioning the clumsiness. Japan, Asia
