Warlord Ouchi Yoshitaka (1507-51) was the son of Ouchi Yoshioki (1477-1528), who served as Assistant Kanrei (Kanrei was “shogun’s deputy”) in the Muromachi military government. The Ouchi Family fought for control over the seven provinces in Chugoku and Kyushu, rivaling other powerful clans of the area such as Shoni, Otomo, and Amako. Yoshitaka was fond of literature and patronized aristocrats from war-weary Kyoto at his estates in Yamaguchi, which helped to spread central culture to remote provinces. He also encouraged trade with Korea and Ming Dynasty China, thus facilitating the introduction of advanced culture and goods into Japan, while allowing Christian missionaries to practice in the provinces he ruled. Nevertheless, opposition grew against Lord Ouchi’s progressive measures and propensity for culture and learning, and he was killed in 1551 in a conspiracy led by his trusted vassal, Sue Harukata (1521-55).Yoshitaka’s hand, tasteful and elegant for that of a military general, shows training in the Jiraku School, originated by Asukai Masayasu (1436-1509). This poem is written on indigo–dyed tanzaku paper with purplish cloud patterns, which is further decorated with rocks and waves depicted with gold mud, in line with the spirit of the poem. Yoshitaka’s free-spirited yet sensitive brushwork is outstanding. Traveling at Sea: I’m sleeping alone on a boat; as such, my sleeves might as well be wet. But tonight, the moon accompanies me.
