2000文化財ウィークリーフレットp.3「懸魚（げぎょ）は屋根の拝みの棟木等を隠すために用いられる装飾的な部材で、現在も社寺の屋根や門に掛かっているのが見られる。本図は大広間に続く白書院の鬼板と蕪（かぶら）懸魚であるが、懸魚の両側の鰭（ひれ）が牡丹の彫物で中門の懸魚と類似している。懸魚の鰭が彫物になるのは、玄関に続く遠侍・大広間と白書院までで、黒書院やそれより北側の御殿では、鰭はより簡素なものとなっている。鬼板（鬼瓦）は、鬼面ではなく獅子口といわれるもので、中門の方がやや装飾的である。(Gegyo, the decoration above Shiroshoin of Edo Castle Honmaru)Gegyo were decorations that were used to cover the ridge beam of a roof, and they are used even today on the roofs and gates of temples.The fins on both sides of the gegyo were sculpted from peony, and they are similar to the gegyo above the Naka-mon Gate. Gegyo with sculpted fins are only found above the main entrance hall, Ōhiroma (large hall), and Shiroshoin, and rooms north of Kuroshoin only have simple decorations. The onigawara ridge-end tiles were not made of devil face, but they had shapes known as Lion's face, and the ridge-end tiles of Naka-mon Gate were somewhat more decorative.」
