The sky is so blue high.The sleeping cat is considered as a master (or housekeeper) of the temple where the "edo sho-gun" sleeps.
Amazingly, she/he is about 400 years old, still sleeping.
The artist, "hidari-jingoro", gave her/him a life to sleep, and behind her/him, we can find sparrows enjoying her/his sleeping.
So, imagine what a peaceful moment it is.
The people made lots of legends related to the artist hidari-jingoro, in some famous sites in Japan, say, Kyoto. So, some people say this legendary artist may be a symbolic name of a group of professional engravers.
The truth is unknown.
But we know it, the cat is sleeping peacefully.
Here is Nikko, Japan
