A court noble and poet of the latter Muromachi Period, Asukai Masanori (1520-94) was made Senior Second Rank in 1574 and was appointed to the administrative post of Provisional Major Counselor in the following year. In 1582, the then 63-year-old Masanori changed his name to Masaharu. As the leader of the Asukai Family, traditional kado and kemari masters, Masanori enjoyed a brilliant career. He served as an important liaison officer between the imperial court and the military government, accompanying Emperor GoYozei during the latter’s visit to Kampaku (Regent) Toyotomi Hideyoshi at Jurakutei Castle in April 1588 to participate in a grand poetry party, for which Masanori also entered his poems. His calligraphy is classified under the Eiga School originated by his great grandfather, Asukai Masachika (1417-90).Masanori’s title on the kaishi reveals that it was written between 1539, when Masanori was Lieutenant of the Imperial Guard of the Left, and 1559, when he became Provisional Middle Counselor. The calligraphic style indicates that it was perhaps written in the poet’s 30s.
A poem composed on a spring day about the longevity of camellia trees: O, camellia trees, is it true you live eight thousand years? Promise your Merciful Lord the Emperor that you will live and blossom eternally.
