[[left margin-english portion]] THE STATUE OF GAKKO BOSATSU OR MOONLIGHT BUDDHIST SAINT / TODAIJI TEMPLE [[/left margin-english portion]] Kyoto 26 Ap. 83 Clem dear - We've been here over two weeks, and having a good time. I've been working on a woodcut with great difficulty; considering methods, materials, manners, language. But think I brought it off O.K. as of yesterday. Have taken in so much. Generally, find the sculpture superior to the pictures in most periods, with of course exception of some [[strikethrough]]screne[[/strikethrough]] screen and wall ptngs. But the temple Architecture is often the great surprise. Good food! Interesting and mysterious but cordial people. Off to Tokyo today. Home 1st May. Many thoughts of you - love, Helen. Clem, It's been a wonderfully rich experience -- our stay in Kyoto. Looking forward to Tokyo & the museums there. xx Maureen [[note]] St.Onge [[/note]] POST CARD ADDRESS ONLY [[sticker]] AIR MAIL Miyako Hotel Kyoto PAR AVION [[/sticker]] AIR Mr Clement Greenberg Box 220 R.F.D. #1, Chenango Lake Road Norwich New York 13815 U.S.A.
