Asukai Masayasu (1436-1509) was the second son of Masayo (1390-1452), but was later adopted by his elder brother Masachika (1417-90) to inherit the family name and legacy. In 1479, Masayasu was promoted to Provisional Middle Counselor, but turned to the religious life only three years later, at age 47, and adopted the Buddhist name of Sosei. In calligraphic history, Masayasu is known to have originated the Jiraku School, and his skills were comparable to his elder brother, who initiated the Eiga School. The exhibited kaishi is signed “Sosei”, so it was written by Masayasu when he was 47 or older, after becoming a monk. The “Lord Narimichi” mentioned in the poem refers to Fujiwara-no-Narimichi (1097-?), an accomplished kemari football player of the late Heian Period. As teaching kemari was the Asukai Family profession, generations often composed poems and said prayers before Narimichi’s portrait.
A poem composed before Lord Narimichi’s portrait:Prayer: May this child learn the skills that will bring prosperity and personal fulfillment.
