介绍（中）	虽然成平的故事在九世纪成为文学作品，但直到十四世纪末，他的哥哥幸平的文字记录才为人所知，当时著名剧作家勘泽泽以流亡朝臣的传说作为能剧的基础。幸平的故事随后以许多不同的形式进行了修改。十八世纪初，剧作家千松门左卫门将其创作为松风和村上，在木偶剧院演出。后来，他的戏剧版本被作为歌舞伎戏剧演出。最后，不幸姐妹的主题从情节中提取出来，并编排成一种舞蹈，在无关的戏剧表演之间表演。这场表演，海滩少女之舞，在这里表现;这个话题与雪平传说中的历史渊源发生了相当大的变化，事实上，这里甚至没有暗示流亡朝臣的存在。相反，重点是成为江户时代女神的两姐妹，与原始传说中的贫困女孩相去甚远。北川宇多太郎的三联画代表了这个主题，在幸平的浪漫传说中，只有其文本来源的最微弱的回声。在这里，两姐妹已经成九个穿着草裙的美丽女人，用一桶桶海水表演了毫无意义的游戏。在江户复杂的城市文化环境中，这种对质朴的轻浮唤起了对"大海的简单生活"的感伤怀旧。
介绍（英）	Although Narihira's story became a literary work in the ninth century, no textual record of his elder brother, Yukihira, is known before the late fourteenth century, when the famous playwright Kanze Zeami used the legend of the exiled courtier as the basis for a Noh drama. The tale of Yukihira was subsequently reworked in many different forms. In the early eighteenth century, the playwright Chikamatsu Monzaemon created it as Matsukaze and Murasame, to be performed in the puppet theater. Later, his version of the play was performed as a Kabuki drama. Finally, the motif of the unfortunate sisters was extracted from the plot and choreographed as a dance to be performed between acts of unrelated plays. This performance, The Dance of the Beach Maidens, is represented here; the topic has undergone a considerable change from the historical source in the legend of Yukihira, indeed, the existence of the exiled courtier is not even implied here. Instead, the focus is on the two sisters who have become Edo-period goddesses, far removed from the impoverished girls of the original legend. Kitagawa Utamaro's triptych represents this subject with only the faintest echo of its textual source in the romantic legend of Yukihira. Here, the two sisters have multiplied into nine beautiful women in grass skirts enacting a meaningless charade with buckets of seawater. In the milieu of the sophisticated urban culture of Edo, this frivolous evocation of rusticity appealed to a sentimental nostalgia for "the simple life of the sea."
