Section of the Dream Diary (Yume no ki) 1225 Myōe Kōben 恵高弁 The monk Myōe, founder of the Kyoto temple Kōzanji, recorded his dreams in a diary, the Yume no ki. On the day in 1225 to which this fragment dates there was to be a ceremony at Kōzanji to dedicate three shrines to three deities—Byakkō (a deity associated with the Himalayas), the Great Illuminating Deity of Kasuga Shrine (central deity of Kasuga Shrine in Nara), and Zenmyō (a protective female divinity). Myōe relates that the ceremony had to be postponed due to a typhoon and then describes two dreams in which he met several individuals who he interpreted as the incarnations of the three deities..

Letter to the artists father-in-law, Wu Yu datable to 1506-10 Wen Zhengming Chinese In the mid-sixteenth century, Wen Zhengming dominated the cultural life of Suzhou with his significant talents in poetry, painting, and calligraphy. This letter shows a different side of Wen, when he was young and his star was still on the rise. Writing in his mid-thirties to his father-in-law, he assumes the tone not of a leading cultural figure but a deferential and respectful junior. The fancy stationery with plum blossom design is another sign that Wen wanted his letter to make a good impression.. Letter to the artists father-in-law, Wu Yu 45775

A Beginners Pictorial Encyclopedia of Natural History 1794 (second edition; 1761 original edition) Tachibana Morikuni This is a later edition of a crucial drawing manual of the eighteenth century, originally published in 1761. To my knowledge it is extremely hard to find a first edition of this work, and this edition dates precisely to the time when Morikuni impacted the art world most powerfully at the end of the eighteenth century, nearly a half century after his death. An artist such as Katsushika Hokusai drew inspiration for his own prints and visual encyclopedias from Morikunis wide-ranging depictions of the world around him. These volumes focus in particular on avian subjects.. A Beginners Pictorial Encyclopedia of Natural History. Tachibana Morikuni (Japanese, 1679-1748).

Letter Rai Sany Japanese ca. 1820-28 This letter was brushed by the celebrated Confucian scholar Rai Sany, who also established a reputation as a poet of Chinese verse, calligrapher par excellence, and Nanga painter. In 1811 he left the Hiroshima Domain, where his father had a prominent post, to become an itinerant scholar, and eventually settled in Kyoto, where he established an academy devoted to the study of Chinese classics. He also devoted himself to composing Chinese poetry and to writing the manuscript of Unofficial History of Japan (Nihon gaishi ), a revisionist history of Japan that reasserted the importance of the prerogatives or the imperial family. Throughout his career, Sany built an extensive network of noted intellectuals, poets and painters of the day, and many collaborative inscribed paintings survive. His calligraphies, including letters such as this one, have always been cherished by collectors and widely published.This letter, addressed to Sanys son, Rai Itsuan (1

Fragment of a Manuscript Wang Zhideng Chinese Like many talented men, Wang Zhideng failed to gain an official appointment but, after the death of Wen Zhengming (1470-1559), he became the most renowned poet of his time and presided over Suzhou literary circles for the last thirty years of his life.A respected calligrapher, this piece preserves the opening section of Wang's essay "Cave among Mountains and Waters," which describes the scripture study room of the Yunyin Monastery near Suzhou. Wang most likely composed this work at the request of the monastery's abbot or patrons, a common practice for literary and artistic luminaries. His refined and relaxed calligraphy, modeled after Wen Zhengming's running-standard script style, suitably complements the lighthearted tone of his prose.. Fragment of a Manuscript 48926

Taiga originally made the four paintings as small sliding-door panels (kobusuma). Some time after Taiga's death, the four panels were removed from their frames and mounted as leaves of an album. In the album, also displayed here, the paintings were paired with poems brushed by several well-known calligraphers, including Minagawa Kien (1734-1807), Kameda Bosai (1752-1826), and nine others. In the mid-twentieth century, Taiga's four paintings and five of the colophons were removed from the album and remounted as hanging scrolls. Mrs. Burke later acquired all ni

Transcription of Three of Cao Tangs Smaller Wandering Immortal Poems Da Chongguang Chinese 1686 Da Chongguang was among a group of late-seventeenth-century calligraphers who excelled at the performative art of large-scale calligraphy in the hanging scroll format. Such calligraphy was often written in group settings that encouraged panache in both performance and calligraphic form. Here, Da Chongguang transcribes three ancient poems in thick, dark ink on a large piece of satin, using strategic imbalances and variant forms of characters to add individual flair to his performance.

Four-Line Poem Feiyin Tongrong Chinese 17th century This work of dynamic, rapidly and fluidly brushed, faintly angled Chinese characters in cursive script comprises a four-line poem, inscribed in dark ink on paper and mounted as a hanging scroll. The writer of this vibrantly inscribed calligraphic work, Feiyin Tongrong, or Hiin Tsy, as he is known in Japan, was a Chinese Buddhist monk who studied under several renowned Chan (Japanese: Zen) masters, served as abbot at several Chan monasteries, and inspired disciples to bring a new form of Chan Buddhism to Japan, where it took root and flourished. A gifted calligrapher, Feiyin was historically important as the teacher of Ingen (Chinese: Yinyuan Longqi, 1592-1673), who founded the baku school of Zen Buddhism in Japan and established the baku head temple of Manpukuji at Uji, Kyoto.The poem on Zen meditation reads:Ive practiced Zen up to the point where in myself I get it; Now understood in clarity, to whom might I pass it on All I see is t

Tracing Copy of The Song of Everlasting Sorrow” by Bo Juyi possibly circa 1919 copy of a 1614 work After Sh?kad? Sh?j? This deluxe collotype reproduction, over seven meters in length records one of the most revered poems in East Asian literary history, originally written in 806 by one of the most revered poets of the Tang Dynasty. Over 800 years later, it was transcribed by one of the most revered calligraphers of the Momoyama period, and then dedicated by him to one of the most prominent courtiers and cultural arbiters in Kyoto of the time. In this way, this work encapsulates a sweeping history of cultural transmission from China to Japan, and serves as a time capsule revealing the florescence of calligraphy and poetry during the early seventeenth century in Kyoto. The Song of Everlasting Sorrow” composed by the Chinese poet Bai Juyi related the events surrounding the death— during the Anshi Rebellion in 755—of Yang Guifei, the beloved concubine of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang dynas

The pass states: Dutch ships are allowed to travel to Japan, and they can disembark on any coast, without any reserve. From now on this regulation must be observed, and the Dutch left free to sail where they want throughout Japan. No offenses to them will be allowed, such as on previous occasions. Sealed and dated August 24, 1609. This is an official document bearing the shogun's scarlet seal. Ieyasu, acting as the retired shogun (ogosho), remained the effective ruler of Japan until his death. Ogosho Ieyasu also supervised diplomatic affairs with the Netherlands and Spain. He chose to distance Japan from the Europeans starting in 1609, although the bakufu did give the Dutch exclusive trading rights and permitted them to maintain a factory for trading purposes. From 1605 until his death, Ieyasu consulted with an English Protestant pilot in Dutch employ, William Adams.

Two pages from 'Lieu duong Nguyen tau Chan Tam', handwritten in Han-Nom. Probably late 19th century. Chu Nom is an obsolete writing system of the Vietnamese language. It makes use of Chinese characters (known as Han Tu in Vietnamese), and characters coined following the Chinese model. The earliest known example of Chu Nom dates to the 13th century. It was used almost exclusively by the Vietnamese elite, mostly for recording Vietnamese literature (formal writings were, in most cases, not done in Vietnamese, but in classical Chinese). It has almost been completely replaced by Quoc Ngu, a script based on the Latin alphabet.
