This is a manuscript of Dailouyuan ji by Wang Yukou of China's Song dynasty (960-1279), copied by Nukina Kaioku (1778-1863). Kaioku was a calligrapher and painter of the late Edo period (1615-1898). He mastered calligraphy under Nishi Nobuyuki. Strongly influenced by the calligraphy of priest Kûkai (also known as Kôbô Daishi, 774-835), he successfully established his own style, known as Nukina ryû. Dailouyuan ji was written with the intention of reproving rulers of the time through stories of how past leaders devoted themselves to government.
