The Japanese word 先祖 meaning "Ancestor" is composed of the kanji先 (read sen) meaning "before; ahead; previous" and 祖 (read zo) meaning "ancestor; pioneer; founder".
Each design is Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase's hand-brushed calligraphy of the word or phrase on this page, delivered as a PDF you can print. Every PDF includes the line art, so a tattoo artist or a craftsperson can work from the outline as well as the brushed image.
