    • Description

      The scroll is slightly foxed overall as it was drawn years ago.
      We estimate it was drawn before World War 2.
      There are some spots, stains, folds and amotions on the drawing part.
      As a whole, the condition of this scroll is not so bad.
      Nichiren's (1222 - 1282), great religeous leader and the founder of the Hokke-Shu Sect of Buddhism, words are drawn well in good form.
      The signature and monogram of the drawer are illegible, however, he seems to have been a Buddhist priest of the Honmon-Ryu School of the Hokke-Shu Sect.
      He also seems to have been a high-ranked priest of the Hongan-Ji Temple with long and distinguished history in Kyoto.
