This is a [handwritten] Goshuin (castle seal) from Shiga Prefecture's Sawayama Castle (the residence of the loyal and wise general Mitsunari Ishida), which was sold by lottery with a limit of 20 pieces per day, twice a day, at "Oshiro EXPO 2024" (meaning only 80 of these exist in the world). The calligraphy is handwritten by the street poet [Kota]. Although the category is listed as "Printed Matter," it is handwritten! As there appear to be no other listings of the same item, this is the current price. A tourism PR card for Hikone City will be included as a bonus. This card also serves as a lottery ticket, and those with a stamp of Hikonyan are winners. Below is the explanation from Mercari AI. I left it in because it was amusingly vague, seeming both correct and incorrect. -------------------------------------- [Work Characteristics] This calligraphy work is expressed in golden brushstrokes, making it visually very impressive. The black background enhances the golden characters, creating a special atmosphere. [Importance of the Date] The date December 22, Reiwa 6 (2024) is written, clearly indicating the year of creation. This increases its value for collection and display. [Decorative Elements] The work features a floral pattern design, adding a simple yet elegant touch. This allows it to be enjoyed as interior decoration. - Calligraphy work: Written in golden brushstrokes - Date: December 22, Reiwa 6 - Background color: Navy blue - Decoration: Includes a floral pattern design Thank you for viewing.
