Etai was not only a spiritual leader but also an influential figure in religious and peace movements from the Taisho to the Heisei period. The character is powerfully rendered, capturing the essence of tranquility and joy. This original work, written on paper, is authenticated by Yamada Etai's signature and seal on the left side, symbolizing its authenticity and connection to his spiritual teachings. Housed in its original wooden box, this scroll is a relic of Showa era artistry and religious significance. The wooden ends of the scroll complement the natural and serene aesthetic of the calligraphy. Please note the scroll bears signs of aging, with slight staining and typical wear as shown in the photographs. Overall Dimensions: approx. H 128 cm W 67 cm ・Please make sure to review all the provided information and images before placing your bid. ・We make every effort to accurately represent the product's colors and textures in our photos.
