"Virtue" is a powerful and evocative work of Japanese calligraphy by the renowned Zen master and artist Hakuin Ekaku (c. 1686–1769). The calligraphic strokes are bold and expressive, capturing the essence of the word "virtue" in a single, dynamic character. This piece exemplifies the Zen Buddhist emphasis on simplicity, directness, and the pursuit of enlightenment through meditation and contemplation. The work is a testament to Hakuin's mastery of calligraphy as an art form and its potential to convey profound spiritual meaning.
