I read the one character calligraphy;
事 Koto (Thing)
Often seen one character calligraphy in Chashitsu
(Tea rooms)-This one is very idiosyncratic-
Signature,
光圓 Kōen
Upper seal,
曼殊門主 Manshu-monshū - Head Priest of Manshu(in)
Lower seal,
光圓 Kōen
Yamaguchi Kōen 山口光圓 1891-1972
Buddhist scholar,
Professor of Tendai Sect Western University, president of Hieizan Senshūin
1947-1967 Head priest of Manshuin Temple in Kyōtō
1967-1972 Director of Tendai Sect Academy.
The 3rd scroll is Chinese.
The three character calligraphy reads,
盟清禾 Meng Qinghe ca. Hopeful Alliance
Seal under the inscription;
鄭進發印 Seal of Zheng Jinfa
Unidentifiable artist
With regards,
I.Nagy
