Taiga-style Calligraphy, 1839, Fgai Honk, Japanese, 1779 - 1847, 44 7/8 × 16 1/16 in. (113.98 × 40.8 cm) (image)69 3/4 × 20 15/16 in. (177.17 × 53.18 cm) (mount, without roller), Ink on paper, Japan, 19th century, Fgai playfully experimented with tonality, size, and writing in this work. One can see the ink running out, and the brush being dipped into ink through the change in ink tones. Taking advantage of the looseness of structure of the running-cursive script, he varies the size of each character as well, elongating some characters while flattening others, thus creating a visual rhythm in addition to the poetic rhymes.
