The calligraphy on the kakemono in the image is by the Japanese calligrapher Ashiwara Yoshimitsu (葦原義光).
Ashiwara Yoshimitsu was a calligrapher from the Edo period (1603-1868). He specialized in the Shodo (書道) style of calligraphy, characterized by its elegant and flowing lines.
The text on the kakemono is a kanshi (漢詩), or Chinese poem. Kanshi poems were popular in Japan during the Edo period and were often used as decorative elements in homes. The specific text of this kanshi is unknown, but it likely revolves around a natural theme or philosophical concept.
Kakemonos are an important form of Japanese art and culture, seen as a way to express the beauty of Japanese calligraphy. They are also used as meditation aids or to create a sense of calm and serenity in a room.
