日晴 Nichisei Age 1881 Japanese art Buddhist kakejiku kakemono wall hanging scroll / Nichiren Mandala Gohonzon RE379

Age: 1881 / 明治十四年辛巳
Signature: 日晴 Nichisei

Anchored in the formal elegance of Nichiren Buddhist calligraphy, this Gohonzon by Nichisei, dated 1881 (Meiji 14), presents a dignified arrangement of sacred inscriptions executed with confident, authoritative brushwork. The vertical composition centers on invocations fundamental to Nichiren devotion, framed by additional script that reflects the doctrinal structure and ritual gravity of the piece. Nichisei’s signature “Nichisei” (日晴) affirms the work’s origin and situates it within the lineage of temple‑produced mandalas of the late Meiji period. The refined mounting enhances the solemn presence of the calligraphy, making this scroll a compelling example of Buddhist devotional art with both historical and spiritual resonance.
