The composition has a strong visual rhythm, giving the work both decorative presence and a distinctly contemplative character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the reverse is a handwritten explanatory phrase:\u003cbr\u003e“Always hold sincerity in the highest regard.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe key concept is 誠実 (seijitsu) — sincerity, honesty, faithfulness, and integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Japanese ethical thought, seijitsu describes a person who acts genuinely and truthfully, without deceit or superficiality. The reverse inscription therefore gives the artwork a clear moral message: to live with sincerity and to treat honesty as a guiding principle in everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strong calligraphic forms contrast beautifully with the generous empty space of the shikishi, allowing each brushstroke to stand out. The work carries the simplicity and directness often found in Japanese philosophical and moral calligraphy, where a short phrase can serve as a daily reminder of how one wishes to live.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 24 x 27cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison Kyo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59062683763019,"sku":"SHP412","price":13.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/9746\/7723\/files\/Cover_e9a440f8-c4de-45cd-ac05-fe255eb719ca.jpg?v=1793357096","url":"https:\/\/maisonkyo.be\/de\/products\/shp412-seijitsu-original-shikishi-artwork-%e8%aa%a0%e5%ae%9f","provider":"Maison Kyo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
