Shojo—chief priest of Hotoku‑ji and a leading figure of the Daitoku‑ji school—renders the characters with a rhythm that feels both spacious and alive, allowing each brush movement to breathe with the season’s quiet awakening. The vertical flow of ink shifts from powerful, grounded forms to lighter, more open gestures, creating a natural cadence that mirrors the poem’s sense of renewal. Signed “Zen Daitoku Yagyu Shojo” with the seals “Hotoku Zenji” and “Shojo”, the work carries the authority and contemplative depth of a seasoned Zen calligrapher. Accompanied by its original box (Tomobako), the scroll has been carefully preserved. Displayed within an interior, it introduces a serene, uplifting presence—its calligraphy resonating like a breath of spring that quietly transforms the atmosphere around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhole dimensions: 14\" W x 68.8\" H \/ 35.8cm x 174.8cm\u003cbr\u003eInside dimensions: 11.1\" W x 39\" H \/ 28.4cm x 99.2cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Paper\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Handpainted\u003cbr\u003eRoller ends: Wood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 480g including Original Box (Tomobako)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAntique items have originally crease, stain, damage, and more.
