This is a shikishi (decorative paperboard) featuring a thistle design and the Zen phrase "Banri no Aki" (Autumn Across Ten Thousand Miles), perfect for display in the autumn season. "Banri no Aki" refers to "Seifu Banri no Aki" in Zen terminology. This phrase describes "a clear breeze blowing across, with autumn scenery stretching as far as the eye can see." It is often used to express the feeling of clarity and refreshment experienced by someone who has attained enlightenment after long years of practice. - Artist: Daido Nishigaki "Banri no Aki" - Painter: Chikurin Thistle - Medium: Shikishi - Design: Floral pattern - Calligraphy: Brush calligraphy - Seal: Red seal present Thank you for viewing.
