This painting depicts the heads of the Northern Fujiwara (Ōshū Fujiwara) clan, the branch of the family that was based at Hiraizumi. Clockwise from top, they are Fujiwara no Kiyohira (1056–1128), founder of the Northern Fujiwara clan, his second son and successor Fujiwara no Motohira (1105–1157), and his grandson Fujiwara no Hidehira (1122?–1187). This painting is a copy of the original, believed to have been completed in the nineteenth century.
