- Description
The sun has, since ancient times, been worshipped around the world and many religions have developed out of sun worshipping traditions. For example, “Amaterasu Oomikami,” the top god in Japanese mythology, is the sun god.
A “kakejiku” (hanging scroll), on which “Tenshoukoutaijin”(Amaterasu Oomikami) is written, is often displayed in “tokonoma” (alcove) for the safety of the family, a state of perfect health, a good harvest, and so on.
This Amaterasu Oomikami was written by Shuuzan Ueda who is known in Japan as a “nōshoka” (master of calligraphy). This is a very dynamic and powerful piece of calligraphy.
