Stereograph of Rikushu-no-matsu (Land Boat Pine) of Rokuonji Temple taken from the west side of the hojo (head priest's quarters), facing west-northwest. It is said that this pine was planted by Yoshimitsu Ashikaga. The branches were formed to look like a boat. On the left is the ohjoin (large study), and the roof of the kuri is visible on the right. Two boys wearing hakama are facing each other. Taken in 1904.
