Subject:Meaning of a Japanese calligraphy
Posted By: Marta Thu, Jul 16, 2020 IP: 95.238.76.81
Hi everyone. In this calligraphy the largest kanji is 徳 toku (Virtue). Can anyone tell me what is the translation of the whole sentence? Is there the name of the calligrapher? Thanks everyone for your attention,
Marta
