A fragment from the Nakabumi Shu, Collection of Fujiwara-no-Nakabumi (922-992) poems, who was one of the 36 immortal masters of Japanese poetry. Of the handwritten copies preserved to this day, the segment shown here most closely resembles the original Nakabumi Shu stored in the Archive and Mausolea Department of the Imperial Household Agency.The paper is imported karakami (decorated paper made in the North Sung in 11thcentury- China) with arabesque design printed on a white undercoat, which, however, has worn off considerably during the hundreds of years this art piece has endured. This renders some of the inscription illegible. The long-breathed strokes create a flowing continuity and show the noble elegance of the Heian period. The calligraphy is considered to be that of the masters of the period, executed during the late 11th century. Since no other segments from the original exist, this fragment occupies an important position in the research of Japanese literature.
