andreYes Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 Please help me to translate a hako-gaki. I can just identify several kanji in the beginning: 銘 兼重 - mei kaneshige 法安 .. 久次 .. - hoan .. hisatsugu .. Quote
Markus Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 Translation: "mei ´Kaneshige´ Hôan family - called ´Hisatsugu´ ´Hisatsugu´ was the name with which the fourth and fifth generation Hôan signed as tsuba artists." However, also the second, third, and later generations Hôan beared the name "Hisatsugu". Quote
Nobody Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 ............... ´Hisatsugu´ was the name with which the fourth and fifth generation Hôan signed as tsuba artists." .............. A little more precisely; - According to a book, the tsuba mei is thought to be of 4th or 5th generation of Hoan Hisatsugu. Quote
andreYes Posted June 15, 2010 Author Report Posted June 15, 2010 Markus, Koichi, Thank you for the information about the Hoan Kaneshige! Besides I'd like to know, what else is written here. Could anybody translate? Quote
Markus Posted June 15, 2010 Report Posted June 15, 2010 Hi Andrey. Actually, that´s all. Koichi-san completed just the line which I missed whilst replying without looking back once more at the pic. Quote
