It is a collaboration of a painting by Chingyū, a Sōtō Zen priest, and an inscription by Kaimon Zenkaku (1743-1813), a Rinzai Zen priest, indicating the interaction between the two. Kaimon was a Zen monk of the Rinzai sect in the late Edo period. He was called Entsūshitsu, Kongōshitsu, and Kanshōken. He lived at Jishōin Temple in Bungo, Enpukuji Temple in Yamashiro, and other temples, and was promoted to the 440th resident priest of Myōshinji Temple in Bunka 1 (1804).
