Inscriptions三保の浦羽衣松の由来
江尻の東清水の湊より海浜を廻りて一里余三保の洲崎へ至る駿海一の名所にして風色世に知るところなり 羽衣松は同所にあり 里言にいうむかし天人降りて松に羽衣をぬき置しを漁夫ひろひ取て返さづ 天女かりに漁夫が妻となり辛労して羽衣を取かへし天に帰りしと言い伝ふ 羽衣の松今猶存せり

NOTES:
[1] Much of Bigelow's collection of Asian art was formed during his residence in Japan between 1882 and 1889, although he also made acquisitions in Europe and the United States. Bigelow deposited many of these objects at the MFA in 1890 before donating them to the Museum's collection at later dates.
