Poems from the Poetry Gathering Held in 1259 during an Imperial Visit to Kitayama (Kanazawa Bunko Version) 正嘉三年北山行幸御会歌 （金沢文庫本）しょうかさんねんきたやまぎょうこうぎょかいうた かなざわぶんこぼん
Description
In 1259, a poetry gathering was held upon a visit of the retired Emperor Gosaga (1220–1272) to the Kitayama mountain villa of a court noble in power. This record is the oldest extant transcription of the poems composed at the gathering. It is a precious work also for being made of decorated paper from this time period.
