Dispute Between an Eight-Year-Old Boy and Confucius

The Chinese philosopher Confucius (Kôshi) in conversation with a small boy standing in front of him. Behind them a waterfall and rising sun. To the left rocks and branches of a pine tree. With two poems. This image refers to the story of the boy who asked Confucius what was further away, the city of Luoyang, or the place where the sun sets. After the wise man gave him the obvious answer, the boy countered that you can see the place where the sun sets, but not the city of Luoyang.
