Kegon

A vertical hanging scroll bearing a single large kanji character rendered in bold black brushwork, its strokes thick and irregular with dry, splayed brush-hair textures at the edges. The composition fills nearly the entire cream-colored paper ground, with a small red seal stamped in the lower left. Painted by Shiko Munakata, titled "Kegon" (1970), this ink work shows loose, expressive, high-contrast calligraphic strokes against a light, unadorned background.
