The rigid social structure portrayed in The Tale of Genji is represented in this scene in which the protagonist becomes enthralled by a woman of a different clan. The contrast of the natural elements with the linearity of the architecture mirrors the tension between Genji's true desires and his social responsibilities. The lush natural setting of the pavilion typifies the quarters on the outskirts of Kyoto that the aristocracy inhabited beginning in the Muromanchi period (1392\u20131573 ).
