Buson also connects his human forms in the departure scene of the scroll with nature, as he uses the dramatic white space in between the two groupings.
While the forms are all discernable as human forms, Buson utilized the haiku aesthetic of simplicity and unfinishedness to ethereally suggest the presence of human figures instead of presenting the human form in detail, as he does in his non-haiga paintings.
Likewise, Buson’s artistic style was a mixture of Chinese motifs and brushwork, “the free and lyrical recording of the natural world as he saw it,” and the spontaneity of haiku.

Bashō, whom Buson greatly admired, is regarded as the first and best master of haiku as a form of poetic expression, and Buson painted several handscrolls like this one.
Buson understood the aesthetics of haiku well, as he was also one of Japan’s greatest haiku poets, as well as one of its greatest bunjinga, or literati style painters.

Buson, excellent painter and poet, succeeded in evoking clear images in his picturesque hokkus filled with light.
Buson's hokkus, different from Basho's, don't present philosophy, nor show emphatic gestures.

Poetry (ancient Greek: ποιεω (poieo) = I create) is traditionally a written art form (although there is also an ancient and modern poetry which relies mainly upon oral or pictorial representations) in which human language is used for its aesthetic qualities in addition to, or instead of, its notional and semantic content.

 Session 91   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The haikai poet Yosa Buson (1716–1783) exemplifies one type of ideal bunjin (literatus) that emerged at the end of the 18th century in Japan.
This use is similar to Buson’s formulation of rizoku, which he set forth as an antidote to the vulgarity and commercialism that characterized the contemporary haikai community.
My paper draws on examples from Buson’s verse, letters, and haikai theory to examine the connection between fûryû and rizoku, in order to better understand an idea central to Revival haikai and the discourse of nostalgia that emerged in the second half of the 18th century.

 EAJS 2005, Premodern Literature, Abstracts
Based on their naive belief that Buson's works directly reflect the historical Buson's desires and feelings, they construct a consistent but erroneous image of Buson as bunjin from his literary works and paintings.
My analysis of the diversified social aspects of Buson's practice as a poet-painter from a broader socio-historical perspective contributes to demystifying Buson's romanticized image as bunjin who worked only for aesthetic purposes, and helps us to understand that Buson's two-fold practice as a bunjin poet-painter was socio-historically constituted.
Since the serious discussion of Yosa Buson's work started at the end of the nineteenth century, one may recognise roughly three different modes of interpretation.

 Mourning Hokujurosen (translation and commentary by Ken Blacklock)
Buson expresses the unbridgeable gap between life and death with the exclamation, "how far away!" Disheartened by the loss of his friend and mentor, he cries out "why?" as he wanders the hillside.
He observes the colors of life renewing itself, a subject for haiku or a painting, but now there is "no one to see this." Perhaps he feels that he cannot easily express the emptiness contained in this why.
Buson was a follower of the Jodo (Pure Land) sect of Buddhism.

The haiku also influenced W.B. Yeats, Wallace Stevens, and Robert Frost, with the latter poet's work showing striking similar themes of nature.
This book includes more than 300 haikus from three masters: Matsuo Basho (the seeker), Yosa Buson (the artist), and Kobayashi Issa (the humanist).
Although the poets' lives span from 1644 to 1827, this work shows a continuity in attention paid to philisophy, spirituality, and nature - all qualities inherent to well crafted haikus.
