Explore the spirit of the samurai (or bushi—military gentry) and the path of the budô (martial art) masters through paintings, prints, calligraphy and byôbu (folding screens) in this new exhibit. Presented in partnership with Robyn Buntin of Honolulu, this exhibit reveals the samurai spirit and ideals of loyalty, honor, courage and humility through various art forms. Although the samurai class came to an end in 1878, the budô masters of the late 19th and 20th century show, through their calligraphy and ideals, the continuation of this spirit and cultural legacy.
