Emperor GoMizuno-o (1596-1680) was born the third imperial prince of Emperor GoYozei (1571-1617) by Chukamon-In Sakiko. First named Kotohito, Emperor GoMizuno-o was enthroned in 1611 at age 16, and reigned for 18 years and eight months, until he abdicated to Crown Princess Okiko (1623-96), who became Empress Meisho (1623-96). After abdication, however, he wielded political power and cultural influence as the retired emperor for the next 51 years. Emperor GoMizuno-o was multi-talented, having been trained in tea ceremony, flower arrangement, fragrance appreciation, calligraphy, and painting. He also had an inclination for Zen Buddhism. As a natural-born master calligrapher with a talent for poetry, Emperor GoMizuno-o left numerous poetry renditions and waka kaishi. He is also known for having the Shugaku-In Detached Palace built. The poem shown on the exhibited kaishi is included in the Anthology of Go-Mizuno-o-In. The unpretentious and discreet brushstrokes suggest that this kaishi was written in the emperor’s old age, perhaps in his 70s. Standing tall in the mist with colorful cherry blossoms, the distant mountains look like a painting.
