Calligraphy |
Calligaphy,
Framed pices of silk with black Chinese calligraphy
Dated 1924 (the seventh day of the second lunar month, which corresponds to March 11, by the solar calendar). It is a congratulatory gift, from a branch of the Hop Sing Tong in "Dalin City" (Mandarin pronunciation of the characters) to the Seattle branch of the organization
The text, the four large characters in the center, says "Our (military) strength will spread throughout," a phrase attributed to the founder of the Zhou dynasty, and serve as a political and military rallying cry. James Legge translated the book it is from (the Shang Shu [though some say it is found in Mencius as well]), The first (upper right) and last (lower left) characters are in quite archaic form. |
