Tanzaku are very important literary treasures as most of them are signed by their poets, making for easy identification. During the Edo Period, amid the rising popularity of ancient calligraphic masterpieces, tanzaku came to be appreciated enthusiastically by broader audiences. As a result, many editions of Calligraphic Exemplars came into being. In these thick edited notebooks, tanzaku strips were pasted like photos in a modern-day album. The exhibited Genroku Poetry Party Exemplar contains 50 tanzaku strips with waka composed by Retired Emperor Reigen (1654-1732), Prince Naohito (1671-1689), Konoe Motohiro (1648-1722) and other members of the royal and aristocratic families, numbering 34 in total. All of the 50 poems contained in the exhibited exemplar were composed at the Poetry Party of December 25, 1688. (Note that the new era of Genroku began in 1688.)The exhibited tanzaku papers were dyed with indigo to produce cloud-like patterns and then ruled with gold ink. At the top of each, one can discern a tiny hole through which a string was placed to hold the tanzaku strips together at the end of the poetry party.
