Zen / Chan / Meditation Chinese and Japanese Kanji Calligraphy Wall Scroll

This artwork is discounted because of a very minor wrinkle and minor paper flaw.

This character means meditation, and is commonly known as Zen in the west. This is the ancient Chinese and Japanese version of this character. In modern times, it is often written with a couple of dots, instead of the boxes (actually "mouths") at the top of the radical on the right.
