The title 'Gosechi' refers to a series of celebrations held each November at the Imperial palace. The print depicts the Gosechi Lady dressed as a nun, playing the koto as two noblemen weeping quietly as they recall the splendid festivities of bygone days. This print evokes a powerful sense of nostalgia, an emotion keenly felt by Yoshitoshi himself as Japan modernized.
