cschmieg Posted August 16, 2015 at 10:00 PM Report Posted August 16, 2015 at 10:00 PM Hi All, I have two accordion-style calligraphy manuscripts bound in wooden boards, and I am trying to figure out 1.) whether the lettering is Chinese or Japanese (kanji) and 2.) the gist of the documents. Attached are some images. Thanks for any assistance! Quote
