① 梅桜小禽図屏風（ばいおうしょうきんずびょうぶ）（表面、左隻第五扇、第四扇（部分））
Plum and Cherry Blossoms with Small Birds (on the front side and from the fourth and fifth panels from the right of the left-hand screen)

表裏両面に春秋の花鳥を濃彩で表した豪華な屏風で、表面は梅、桜といった春の花木に多種の小禽（しょうきん）を配し、裏面は堅田に咲く菊に丹頂、真鶴の群を描いています。両面とも細部まで丹念に描き、装飾性を推し進めた両面となっています。

This is a gorgeous pair of screens with flowers and birds of spring and autumn painted on either side in thick colors. The front side painting depicts plum, cherry and other spring flowering plants with various small birds, and the back side features red-crowned cranes and white-naped cranes in a dried paddy field after harvest with chrysanthemums. Both paintings are rendered carefully in detail and are quite decorative.
