Konoe Hisamichi (1472-1544) was the son of Regent and Chancellor Konoe Masaie (1444-1505). As the legitimate first son in the noble household, he advanced rapidly in the administration, becoming Regent and clan head/leader at the young age of 21. Thereafter, he repeatedly won appointments and then resigned from them until finally reaching the office of Chancellor in 1514. But by 1533, Hisamichi had become a monk, taking up the Buddhist name of Taisho. He died at age 73 in 1544.A reputed calligrapher, Hisamichi was greatly influenced by the Asukai School, then a fad among the court nobility. His brushworks were much admired, and people regarded him the originator of the Hisamichi School. Konoe Nobutada (1565-1614), later hailed as one of the “Three Calligraphy Masters of the Kanei Era”, was Hisamichi’s great grandson. The exhibited tanzaku is signed “Taisho”, so it was written in Hisamichi’s latter 60s, after he became a monk. The brushstrokes are characterized by well-balanced and mature movements.
