Calligraphy 1915

"Calligraphy" by Nakahara Nantenbo (1839–1925) is a stunning example of Japanese calligraphy, a traditional art form that emphasizes the beauty of written characters. Created in 1915, this vertical scroll features bold black ink strokes that dance across the paper, conveying not only the meaning of the words but also the artist's deep understanding of brushwork and ink control. The piece's elegance and dynamic composition exemplify the expressive power of calligraphy as a form of artistic expression.
