"Women should go out into the world more!"
The bright and glamorous Heian life of Sei Shonagon, an active woman who asserts this, unfolds before your eyes.
More than a thousand years ago. In the ancient world, where wars were constant and brutal, women in Japan in the mid-Heian period were active and lively. Among them, Murasaki Shikibu, who wrote The Tale of Genji, and Sei Shonagon, who wrote The Pillow Book, were particularly brilliant.

The Pillow Book has no story flow, so there are not many paintings that remain. In this book, an unprecedented attempt, the diary, essays, and scenes full of things depicted in The Pillow Book are vividly depicted.
I believe that tracing the era when Sei Shonagon was active at the Imperial Court with her bouncy energy through coloring is nothing other than tracing the cultural Heian period and the way Sei Shonagon lived. ~From the preface~

<Depicted chapters>
Spring is dawn, and the cat that stands in the sky is what makes the heart flutter. It is what is expected. The beloved has come. Hearing the Head Chamberlain's vain words, he went to the village. When the heir of the Imperial Court was in charge of the Imperial Court, he found a charming figure in the western quarters. When the Imperial Court's fifth sabbath was brought out, Shukkeisha visited the Crown Prince. The Head Chamberlain visited the Imperial Court and praised the Lord. After that, events began to occur in the world. Around the first ten days of the new year, when the sky was very dark, and a person who had nothing better to do than play Go, I visited the Imperial Court for the first time. On the second day of the storm, I found a sight I liked. The wife of the Daifu no Mikoto, who was the nurse of the Imperial Court, went down to Hyuga. On February 21st, the snow was falling very heavily at Hōkō-in, and the Chancellor visited the palace through the lattice, which was unusual. On December 24th, the Grand Minister visited the palace to receive the name of the Imperial Court. This story is about what the eye sees and the heart thinks.
