介绍（中）	这幅描绘了一只蹲伏的兔子和一块倾斜的巨石，从后面出现了两簇玫瑰，结合了叶子和花朵上灿烂的彩色效果，以及岩石和兔子皮毛上浅色的墨水和颜色。它具有江户时代长崎画派的风格特征，该画派的风格基于沈南品（也称为沈泉，1725-80 年）的作品，沈南品是一位中国艺术家，1731 年至 1733 年居住在日本的港口城市长崎，以及其他在 18 世纪访问日本的中国画家。绘画元素经过精心细致的细节，集中在画面平面的一侧，这是南宋（1127-1279）以来用于花鸟和植物和动物画的中国惯例。专门从事花鸟流派的艺术家森兰斋是掌握这种中国风格的日本画家之一，这种风格以自然主义但丰富的装饰方式描绘自然的特写图像，背景是空白的丝绸。图像上方的铭文由江户时代首屈一指的佛教学者、作家和改革家之一 Jiun Onkō 绘制。作为一名关注寺院纪律和道德的神职人员，他撰写了许多关于该主题的著作，也是日本最有成就的梵文学者之一。
介绍（英）	This depiction of a crouching rabbit and a leaning boulder from behind which two clusters of roses emerge, combines the effect of brilliant polychrome on the leaves and blossoms with lighter washes of ink and color on the rock and the fur of the rabbit. It bears the stylistic hallmarks of the Edo period’s Nagasaki school of painting which was based stylistically on the work of Shen Nanpin (also known as Shen Quan, fl. 1725–80), a Chinese artist who lived in Japan, in the port city of Nagasaki, from 1731 to 1733, and other Chinese painters who visited Japan during the eighteenth century. The pictorial elements are carefully and meticulously detailed, and are concentrated within one side of the picture plane, a Chinese convention used in bird-and-flower and plant and animal paintings from the Southern Song dynasty (1127–1279) on. The artist Mori Ransai, who specialized in the bird-and-flower genre, was one of several Japanese painters who mastered this Chinese style of depicting close-up images of nature in a naturalistic but richly decorative manner against a background of blank silk. The inscription above the image was brushed by Jiun Onkō, one of the premier Buddhist scholars, writers, and reformers of the Edo period. A cleric concerned with monastic discipline and ethics, he authored a number of works on the subject, and was also one of Japan’s most accomplished Sanskrit scholars.
