In writing of Kafu Nagai,there is the literary sketchi of "Grazpevine Trellis",but this was written by gining ideas after finishing reading Maupassant's "Yvette".It can be also considered that he put yhe title as "Grapevine Trellis",being influenced by the scene of the grapevine trellis whichappears in the 27th of "Jinpingmei", a novel in Chinese Ming dynasty. Previous studies have found that he had been reading the Chinese novel. A common point can be observed in "Yvette"and "Jinpingmei", which is not romance based on formal marriage. Moreover, the image of "grapes" has the sexual image associated whith "many grape seeds produce many children" in China.
