Authentic Calligraphy by Matsudaira Sadanobu (Rakuō) ☆ Currently featured in this year's NHK Taiga drama "Berabō"! His childhood name was Tayasu Kenmaru. ☆ This is a genuine hanging scroll by the lord of the Shirakawa domain, and a grandson of the eighth Tokugawa Shogun, Yoshimune! It is said that Shibusawa Eiichi revered him. The scroll includes appraisal boxes and inscriptions by Maeda Kasetsu (1841-1916), an excellent art appraiser from the Meiji era, and also by Fujino Kunzan (1863-1943), a close acquaintance of General Nogi Maresuke, whom I deeply respect, and by Muraji Shiraishi. I had a major art appraiser examine it the other day, and they said the hanging scroll had been professionally cleaned once in the past. I believe it would receive a very good evaluation on "Antiques Roadshow." We couldn't agree on a price during a recent purchase offer, so I didn't sell it. If you are interested, please consider it. ☆ I have reviewed the profit margin and slightly increased the price starting February 2nd.
