Here I assume that he died at age 77 in Genroku 7 (1964).　-The Enpon was published in Enpo 7 (1679), when Moronobu was about 62 years old.　-The writing on the background is an excerpt from the afterword including “not for pleasure, but for prosperity of descendants.”　-I referred to his baby-faced self-portrait in a book published in Tenna 3 (1683). Moronobu has a pipe in his left hand and a fan in his right hand there. I had him hold a brush in his left hand here, assuming that he was ambidextrous.
