A drawing of Fujiwara no Teika, known as a courtier, waka poet and scholar of the late Heian and early Kamakura periods. The figure is seated and dressed in elaborate court robes with wide sleeves and intricate patterns. He wears a formal headpiece and has a composed, slightly turned facial expression. In one hand, he seems to hold a rectangular object—possibly a writing tablet or scroll. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fujiwara_no_Teika.jpg
