橘宗義 Tachibana Sogi (b1941) Daitoku-ji Japanese Zen kakejiku kakemono wall hanging scroll / 山高流長 Sanko Ryucho with Original Box (Tomobako) RE387
橘宗義 Tachibana Sogi (b1941)
Head Priest of Tokuzen-ji, Temple Daitoku-ji
with signature 'Ryoan' 了庵 and seal 'Murasakino' 紫野 'Ryoan' 了庵
This Zen calligraphy by Tachibana Sogi, head priest of Tokuzen‑ji and known by the art name Ryoan, presents the phrase 山高流長 with a commanding yet unforced clarity. The tall, rising strokes evoke the presence of a sheer mountain ridge, while the sweeping lower movement suggests water flowing without end, creating a rhythm that feels both expansive and quietly disciplined. Sogi’s brushwork carries the steadiness of long training at Daitoku‑ji: each line lands with intention, neither rushed nor embellished, allowing the meaning of the phrase—enduring height, unbroken flow—to emerge through the movement of ink itself. His signature Ryoan and the Murasakino seal anchor the composition with a calm authority, while the deep indigo brocade mounting frames the calligraphy in a way that heightens its sense of spaciousness. Accompanied by its original tomobako, the piece embodies a balance of strength and serenity that reflects the essence of Zen practice captured in a single moment of brush and breath.
