Looking for this guide.
Prized horses in stables may be the main theme of the pair of screens to which this screen belongs, but a lot of action is happening on the verandas. Here, people challenge one another at two different board games, go and shōgi. A lively atmosphere develops in the interplay of the dynamic horses and the strategic games. Shōgi means "military leader's board game."
