Looking for this guide.
Prized horses in stables may be the main theme of the pair of screens of which this screen is a part, but a lot of action is happening on the veranda. Falconry is the focus of this screen, and a lively atmosphere develops in the interplay of the dynamic horses and the birds of prey. This is the earliest surviving example of the "horse stable" theme in Japanese screens.
