介绍（中）	这封信由朝臣兼政府官员河野坂久所写，现在被当作手卷。它主要用汉字（汉字）和行书书写，最后是坂久的手写印章（kaō），以及另外三行简短的线条，其中最左边的线条可能在装裱过程中略有裁剪。尽管最初是为了个人交流，而不是作为展示对象，但汉字的平衡、笔触粗细的变化以及日本音节字符（假名）所用的较细、流畅的线条的墨水密度，结合在一起，形成了优雅的视觉效果坂久，从室町时代的最后几年一直生活在短暂但重要的摩山时代，是一位重要的贵族，也是杰出的藤原家族的一个分支的成员。他与朝廷和武士阶层都有联系，活跃于政治和军事界，担任过多个官职，并成为该国第二位"统一大臣"军阀丰臣秀吉（1537-1598）的养父。坂久的儿子，河野信长（1565-1614），是他那个时代著名的书法家之一，被称为"Kan'ei Sanpitsu"或"Kan'ee时代的三笔"之一
介绍（英）	This letter, written by the courtier and government official Konoe Sakahisa, is now mounted as a handscroll. Brushed predominantly in Chinese characters (kanji), in semi-cursive script, it concludes with Sakahisa’s handwritten seal (kaō), and three additional, brief lines, the leftmost of which may have been slightly cropped in the mounting process. Although originally intended for personal communication rather than as an object for display, the balance of the characters and variations in thickness and thinness of the brushstrokes and the density of the ink—with thinner, delicately flowing lines used for the Japanese syllabic characters (kana)—combine for an elegant visual effect. Sakahisa, who lived from the final years of the Muromachi period through the short-lived but momentous Momoyama period, was a nobleman of major importance and a member of a branch of the illustrious Fujiwara clan. He had ties to both the imperial court and the warrior class and was active in political and military circles, holding several official posts, and became adoptive father to the country’s second "great unifier," the warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi (1537–1598). Sakahisa’s son, Konoe Nobutada (1565–1614), was renowned as one of the great calligraphers of his time and labeled one of the Kan’ei Sanpitsu, or "Three Brushes of the Kan’ei era."
