The Zen phrase "楓葉経霜紅" (Fūyō keishō kō) means "maple leaves turn red after experiencing severe frost," and it explains that "people grow by overcoming hardships, and their depth as human beings increases." It is a Zen phrase that likens the process of becoming a person of depth and character through difficult environments and experiences to the beauty of autumn leaves. This tea hanging scroll is of high spirituality and elegance, with the calligraphy of the Zen master, who is well-versed in tea ceremony, showing the strength that can be said to be the Zen state reached after daily ascetic practices, and also the beauty likened to the maples that color autumn, making it a tasteful ink trace. There are some age-related bleeding and slight creases on the ink trace and mounting, but it can be enjoyed without any problems. #FineArt #OldPaintings #ContemporaryCalligrapher #ZenMonkFromHyogo #ModernAndContemporaryZenMonk #TeaRoomHangingScroll #TeaCeremonyHangingScroll #AutumnTeaHangingScroll #InkTrace #CalligraphyHangingScroll #FamousMonk #TeaHangingScroll #TeaHangingScrollOneLine #RinzaiSect #InkTrace #ZenPhraseHangingScroll #DaitokuJiHangingScroll #DaitokuJiSchool #TokonomaHangingScroll #SpaceHangingScroll #HospitalityHangingScroll #RyokanHangingScroll #InterestingAntique #BargainAntiqueMarket #MimizukuSamurai Thank you for reading to the end.
