The work depicts an elegant woman in a layered kimono adorned with a delicate botanical pattern of nandina (heavenly bamboo) berries and foliage, with a deep teal-green obi sash. She reaches upward toward a branch of white plum blossoms (ume), a quintessential symbol of early spring in Japanese culture. The woman wears a traditional hairstyle held with kōgai (ornamental hairpin) and a cloth veil (okoso-zukin), evoking the refined femininity of the Edo period while maintaining a distinctly modern sensibility. Shiratori studied under the legendary bijin-ga master Itō Shinsui from 1932, and devoted his life to the pursuit of idealized feminine beauty through the Nihonga tradition. Orphaned as a young child — losing his mother shortly after birth and his father at age eight — Shiratori found solace in Shinsui's paintings of beautiful women, in which he saw the image of the mother he never knew. This deeply personal motivation infused his entire oeuvre with a quality of tender reverence. The present work exemplifies Shiratori's mature style: refined draftsmanship, subtle color harmonies of soft pink, teal green, and gold against a pale ground, and the traditional Nihonga technique of layering mineral pigments on silk. The gofun (shell white) used for the plum blossoms — noted in the condition report as showing some flaking — testifies to the authentic use of traditional materials. The composition balances the figure's graceful vertical pose against the angular thrust of the plum branch, creating a dynamic tension characteristic of the artist's finest bijin-ga works. Shiratori received numerous prestigious accolades during his career, including the Prime Minister's Award at the Nitten exhibition for \"Jakushō\" (寂照, 1986), and the Imperial Prize and Japan Art Academy Award for \"Kikujidō\" (菊慈童, 1993). He was appointed a Member of the Japan Art Academy in 1997, and in 1998, his masterwork \"Hagoromo\" (羽衣) was displayed in the Prime Minister's official residence. His works are permanently housed at the Komoro Kōgen Museum of Art \/ Shiratori Eisetsu Gallery in his hometown of Komoro, Nagano Prefecture, to which he donated 195 works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47993969410286,"sku":null,"price":1500000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/1.jpg?v=1778234235"},{"product_id":"setsugo-after-the-snow-雪後","title":"Hoshun Yamaguchi - After the Snow (雪後)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 156.75px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eArtist\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e Hoshun Yamaguchi (Japan, 1893-1971)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eMedium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003ePainting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 39.1875px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 39.1875px;\"\u003eMaterials\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 39.1875px;\"\u003eMineral pigments and ink on paper, hanging scroll (kakejiku) mounting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eUnique\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e(H)147.3cm, (W)40.7cm.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eSignature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eSigned 'Hoshun hitsu' with red seal at lower right of painting.

Snow-laden bamboo arches across the upper register, its weight described in passages of white gofun pigment held by the lightest of ink contours; below, a solitary bullfinch (uso) cuts diagonally across the muted silver-grey ground, its rust-orange breast the painting's single warm note. The dialogue between the arc of the snow-bound branch and the line of the bird's flight reveals Hoshun's lifelong engagement with French modernism, the spatial logic of Braque and the simplified line of Matisse, absorbed into the disciplined vocabulary of Nihonga. Hoshun, a recipient of the Order of Culture in 1965, was among the most influential figures in postwar Japanese painting; his former studio in Hayama is preserved today as the Hoshun Yamaguchi Memorial Museum.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48004459692270,"sku":null,"price":1950000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/1_81170f5d-81f8-4fbf-931f-bcabfeaa1071.jpg?v=1778647722"},{"product_id":"ryushi-kawabata-long-spring-長春図","title":"Ryushi Kawabata - Long Spring (長春図)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 137.157px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eArtist\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e Ryushi Kawabata (Japan, 1885-1966)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e1955\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eMedium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003ePainting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eMaterials\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eColor and mineral pigments on silk (Nihonga)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eUnique\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e(H)45.0cm, (W)57.0cm.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eFramed (mounted scroll)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e(H)154.5cm, (W)78.6cm.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003eSignature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003eSigned 'Ryushi' with red artist's seal at lower right of painting.

The title 'Choshun' is the classical Japanese name for the ornamental rose introduced from China, prized for its remarkably long blooming season. Here the artist captures a single fully-opened white rose, a tight crimson bud, and abundant verdant foliage emerging from a bold red and white sometsuke-style vase, all rendered in mineral pigments on silk. The composition unites the decorative refinement of classical Nihonga with the romantic, dynamic sensibility that defined Kawabata's mature work. As founder of the Seiryusha school and a recipient of the Order of Cultural Merit (1959), Kawabata was one of the leading Nihonga masters of the 20th century, and intimate scroll paintings such as this one — bearing both an in-painting signature with seal and an original artist-inscribed tomobako — represent the most reliably authenticated category of his work for collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48004802609390,"sku":null,"price":600000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/2_21bb35e3-dc4f-43d7-8798-ee96c2c64b47.jpg?v=1778654598"},{"product_id":"shinsen-tokuoka-autumn-grasses-秋叢","title":"Shinsen Tokuoka - Autumn Grasses (秋叢)","description":"\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; height: 215.531px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.5677%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eArtist\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.0808%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e Shinsen Tokuoka (Japan, 1896–1972)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.5677%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.0808%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.5677%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eMedium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.0808%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003ePainting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 39.1875px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.5677%; height: 39.1875px;\"\u003eMaterials\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.0808%; height: 39.1875px;\"\u003eMineral pigments on silk, mounted as a hanging scroll (kakejiku)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.5677%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.0808%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eUnique\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.5677%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.0808%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e(H) 127.0 cm, (W) 42.0 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.5677%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003eScroll\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.0808%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e(H) 223.0 cm, (W) 62.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.5677%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003eSignature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.0808%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003eHand-written 'Shinsen' signature in ink with red square seal below, at lower right of silk.

A Japanese squirrel peers cautiously from a hollow in a massive, moss-covered tree trunk, surrounded by luminous fiddlehead ferns unfurling in golden-cream tones and broad teal hosta-like leaves rendered in Kudo's signature flat mineral-pigment planes. The shimmering stream glints through the undergrowth, while small white hydrangea blossoms and delicate ivy add botanical detail. Kudo's technique — fine descriptive line work for the animals contrasted with expansive flat color fields of azurite-blue pigment for the foliage — creates a jewel-like, dreamlike atmosphere that is the hallmark of his mature Nihonga style. The painting exemplifies his lifelong devotion to the micro-world of nature: insects, small animals, and plants observed with intimate precision and elevated into a decorative, almost mystical composition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48004919361774,"sku":null,"price":510000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/7917.jpg?v=1778657745"},{"product_id":"terumi-sakane-snowflakes-雪花","title":"Terumi Sakane - Snowflakes (雪花)","description":"\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; height: 137.157px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eTerumi Sakane (Japan, 1978-Present)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Painting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMineral pigments on Japanese paper (Nihonga technique)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClassification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)27.5cm, (W)45.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed Size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)40.0cm, (W)58.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCursive signature in lower right of front.

Painted in traditional Nihonga technique with mineral pigments on Japanese paper, the work exemplifies Terumi Sakane's signature contemporary bijinga style, in which the classical genre of beautiful-woman portraiture is revived through a modern sensibility. The artist captures not only the visual elegance of the figure but also the introspective inner stillness of the modern Japanese woman, set against the timeless poetry of falling snow. Sakane studied Nihonga at Aichi Prefectural University of the Arts and is an active member of the Japan Art Institute (Nihon Bijutsuin), where her recent works have been honored with major prizes including the Japan Art Institute Prize and the Tokyo Governor's Prize.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48009926574318,"sku":null,"price":660000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/8016.jpg?v=1778739407"},{"product_id":"togyu-okumura-rose-sketch-薔薇素描","title":"Togyu Okumura - Rose Sketch (薔薇素描)","description":"\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; height: 137.157px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eTogyu Okumura (Japan, 1889-1990)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDrawing, Collage or other Work on Paper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePencil and colored pencil on paper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClassification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (H)33.8cm, (W)44.8cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (H)50.0cm, (W)61.1cm, (D)3.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist's red seal reading 'Togyu' at lower left of the sheet.

The piece is framed by the prestigious Okamura Tamondo, founded in 1930, a framer known for handling nationally designated Important Cultural Properties.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48010080452846,"sku":null,"price":375000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/7876.jpg?v=1778740718"},{"product_id":"taisei-sato-higo-camellia-肥後椿","title":"Taisei Sato - Higo Camellia (肥後椿)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 176.344px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTaisei Sato (Japan, 1913-2004)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMineral pigments on Japanese paper (Nihonga)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClassification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)41.3cm, (W)53.3cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)61.5cm, (W)73.5cm, (D)5.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 39.1875px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 39.1875px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 39.1875px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrush signature 'Taisei' and red artist's seal at lower right.

Renowned for fusing bird-and-flower painting with landscape into his own distinctive 'kacho-fukei-ga' style, Taisei rendered the white blossoms with delicate mineral pigments on Japanese paper, allowing each gauzy petal and golden stamen cluster to glow against the deep emerald foliage. Bold scarlet accents echo the proud, restrained spirit of Higo culture. Decorated with the Order of Culture (1992) and honored as a Person of Cultural Merit (1988), Sato Taisei is regarded as one of the giants of postwar Japanese painting. Works of his late period, when he returned repeatedly to the camellia motif and his masterwork 'Yuki Tsubaki' (Snow Camellia, 1994), are especially prized among collectors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48010128359662,"sku":null,"price":300000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/IMG_78282_9b3f5934-09cb-494f-8de5-d2089e65c8b0.jpg?v=1778741668"},{"product_id":"togyu-okumura-sketch-of-a-maiko-舞妓素描","title":"Togyu Okumura - Sketch of a Maiko (舞妓素描)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 78.3752px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTogyu Okumura (Japan, 1889–1990)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDrawing, Collage or other Work on Paper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePencil and colored pencil on paper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClassification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H) 45.1 cm, (W) 37.0 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H) 63.5 cm, (W) 55.5 cm, (D) 5.0 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist's red seal stamp (rakkan) in lower right of artwork.

Painted in mineral pigments on paper in the Nihonga tradition, the work captures the hushed atmosphere of deep winter through delicate gradations of blue-grey and ivory. Dark trunks rise through veils of fresh snow, their slender branches reaching across the composition, while the gentle curve of a dark, mirror-like stream balances the dense vertical rhythm of bare trees. Trained under the celebrated Nihonga master Ikuo Hirayama at the Tokyo University of the Arts, Futagawa is recognized as a leading realist landscape painter of his generation. The painting bears the artist's brush signature and red square seal at the lower left, and the original frame retains the artist's hand-inscribed paper label on the reverse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48015256944878,"sku":null,"price":600000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/7867.jpg?v=1778816598"},{"product_id":"yuki-ogura-one-hundred-longevities-書-百壽","title":"Yuki Ogura - One Hundred Longevities (書 百壽)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eYuki Ogura (Japan, 1895-2000)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGold pigment paint and mineral color pigments on dyed washi paper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClassification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H) 32.0 cm, (W) 43.0 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H) 47.0 cm, (W) 58.2 cm, (D) 4.5 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInked signature 'Yuki' and the artist's red seal at lower right; certifying paper label affixed to the reverse of the frame.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA rare auspicious work by master Nihonga painter Yuki Ogura (1895-2000), brushed in the very final years of her long life.

He served on the Art Committee of the Imperial Household and was awarded the Order of Cultural Merit in 1959.

A single green cicada clings to the smooth bark of a slender tree, set against the rhythm of three vertical trunks rendered on fine silk. Gakuryo, who in his youth absorbed the elegant traditions of the Rinpa school under Nozawa Teiu and the Yamato-e Tosa school under Kawabe Mitate, was equally devoted to direct observation, and the gossamer wings and softly mottled bark in this composition reveal his celebrated draftsmanship. In East Asian poetry the cicada has long stood as an emblem of summer, transience and renewal, and the work conveys that sentiment with quiet, contemplative restraint. The painting is signed Gakuryo at the lower left with the artist's red intaglio seal. It is preserved in its original double wooden storage box: the inner artist-signed box bears the title Semigin on the lid in the artist's own brushwork and his signature with red seal on the inside of the lid, accompanied by the original mounter's label of the respected Nakamura Shindo workshop on the outer box.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48015727755502,"sku":null,"price":540000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/7960.jpg?v=1778832547"},{"product_id":"chusaku-oyama-winter-dawn-冬晨","title":"Chusaku Oyama - Winter Dawn (冬晨)","description":"\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChusaku Oyama (Japan, 1922-2009)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMineral pigments on paper (Nihonga)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClassification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)26.2cm, (W)37.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed Size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)46.5cm, (W)58.0cm, (D)5.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInk signature 'Chusaku' with red square artist's seal at lower right; signed title certification label affixed to reverse of frame.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA jewel-like nihonga composition by Chusaku Oyama (1922-2009), a Person of Cultural Merit and recipient of the Order of Culture, who served as President of the Nitten and a member of the Japan Art Academy.

Painted with mineral pigments on paper in the classical nihonga tradition that Oyama refined under his master Hoshun Yamaguchi, the piece is signed and sealed at the lower right and presented in a gilt frame by Kosonu Tamondo, with the original outer storage box and protective yellow cloth wrapper.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48020163035374,"sku":null,"price":420000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/8129.jpg?v=1778984288"},{"product_id":"insho-domoto-clear-summer-breeze-清夏清風","title":"Insho Domoto - Clear Summer Breeze (清夏清風)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 117.563px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInsho Domoto (Japan, 1891-1975)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMineral pigments and ink on silk\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClassification\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H) 37.0 cm, (W) 42.8 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed (hanging scroll mounted) size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H) 135.0 cm, (W) 61.5 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrush signature 'Insho' with red square artist seal at upper-left of painting.

This intimate hanging scroll, 'Clear Summer Breeze,' depicts a tranquil riverside hamlet of thatched cottages framed by lush summer foliage, with a villager shouldering buckets through the courtyard. Painted in mineral pigments and ink on silk, the work captures the artist's signature lyrical brushwork and atmospheric handling of summer light.

The cel captures the young hero Triton cutting through the ocean surface, his vivid green hair and determined expression rendered in hand-applied opaque color on a transparent celluloid sheet. The registration peg holes and the hand-written cel number \"A6\" along the top edge are physical traces of the studio photography process, confirming that this exact sheet passed under the animation camera to expose a single frame of the broadcast. Unlike mass-produced prints, each cel is a unique object tied to one specific moment of motion, and surviving materials from this period are increasingly sought after internationally as both fine art and primary documents of animation history.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48230407766254,"sku":null,"price":105000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/IMG_7314.jpg?v=1782889939"},{"product_id":"tadao-sato-waterfall-滝","title":"Tadao Sato - Waterfall (滝)","description":"\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; height: 254.719px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTadao Sato (Japan, b. 1959)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSumi ink and acrylic on paper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)53.0cm, (W)41.0cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)62.7cm, (W)50.7cm, (D)5.2cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRarity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 39.1875px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 39.1875px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 39.1875px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHand-signed by the artist in red ink at the lower right, in a vertical cursive script.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition and Authenticity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOverall in good condition, with minor corner bumps and light scuffing; certificate of authenticity issued by gallery (ART KAB).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProvenance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAuction in Japan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrame\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed; bumps to the corners except the lower right, with light scuffing at the lower left.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRendered in near-monochrome tones, this work captures a waterfall falling in a single line from a cliff, viewed head-on. A luminous cascade at the center is framed by dark rock walls, heightening the transparency of the water and the force of its descent. Soft ripples spread across the plunge pool as a fine mist rises, evoking the stillness and spiritual presence long associated with waterfalls in Japanese art as symbols of reverence for nature and purification. The artist, Tadao Sato (born 1959 in Nagano Prefecture), is a contemporary painter who began producing original works on nature and wildlife themes in 1980 and later established his distinctive 'Mokusai' wood-painting technique. Drawing on childhood memories of a rich natural world, he seeks to convey the messages he receives from nature in a beautiful, accessible way and to bring viewers a sense of healing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48235184029934,"sku":null,"price":103500.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/IMG_7328_6615e931-0d00-4380-bdb6-f23f7c7ee1a9.jpg?v=1784004938"},{"product_id":"hiro-yamagata-mt-huangshan-in-mist","title":"Hiro Yamagata - Mt.

Dense, saturated ink builds the foreground crag while pale washes dissolve the far summits into drifting mist, capturing the mountain's ever-shifting atmosphere rather than a literal view. The gestural brushwork and restrained tonal range stand in striking contrast to the vivid, celebratory silkscreens for which Hiro Yamagata became internationally known. After his first trip to China in 1998, Yamagata produced works informed by Taoist thought and East Asian landscape traditions, and this painting belongs to that lesser-seen, contemplative side of his practice. It is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity issued by NATURE BOY INC., which records the reference number Y-752 and identifies the piece as an original, and it is hand-signed and dated by the artist at the lower right.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48247025271022,"sku":null,"price":135000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/IMG_7282.jpg?v=1783142887"},{"product_id":"kojin-kudo-spring-mandala-春曼陀羅","title":"Kojin Kudo - Spring Mandala (春曼陀羅)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 352.687px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eKojin Kudo (Japan, 1915-2011)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMineral pigments on paper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)41.0cm, (W)53.3cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed Size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)55.7cm, (W)68.0cm, (D)5.0cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRarity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSigned in gold pigment at lower right with red seal below.

In this painting a cluster of fern fronds uncurls at the center of a warm gold-brown field. A long-tailed bird drops in from the upper left, two pale butterflies drift down from the upper right, and clover blossoms open along the lower edge. There is no horizon and no defined ground: the space is not a place but a state of mind, built up in soft layers of mineral pigment on paper. The title borrows the word for mandala, the Buddhist diagram of the cosmos, and the composition follows that logic. Small creatures and plants are arranged around a central axis of new growth, each one a link in a single circuit of life. This is the dreamlike, quietly animated nature that made Kudo one of the leading voices of postwar Japanese-style painting. The work carries the artist's signature and vermilion seal in gold at the lower right, and his own paper label, titled and sealed, on the reverse of the frame.

Chusaku Oyama removed every anchoring element from the composition: no bank, no reeds, no horizon, only the shifting surface of the water and the fish itself. The mineral pigments are layered so that the ground reads simultaneously as depth and as reflection, while the scales are built up in fine, patient strokes that shade from pale ochre into burnished gold. Carp were the subject Oyama returned to throughout his career and the motif for which collectors know him best. Recipient of the Order of Culture in 2006 and a member of the Japan Art Academy, he treated the fish not as a zoological study but as a vehicle for stillness. Authentication evidence is unusually clear on this piece: the gold-brushed signature and vermilion seal sit in the lower right corner of the painted surface, and the original paper label bearing the title, the artist's signature and his seal remains intact on the upper right of the backing board, alongside the label of the Tokyo framing workshop that mounted the work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48382266540270,"sku":null,"price":360000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/IMG_7742.jpg?v=1784878687"},{"product_id":"kojin-kudo-nesting-at-dawn-暁の巣ごもり","title":"Kojin Kudo - Nesting at Dawn (暁の巣ごもり)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 293.907px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKojin Kudo (Japan, 1915-2011)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Undated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMineral pigments on paper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)34.5cm, (W)45.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)52.2cm, (W)64.4cm, (D)5.0cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRarity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInk signature and gold seal at lower right of the painting.

White blossoms open at the left, sharp green leaves cut across the right, and beneath the crane a pale reflection dissolves into the shallows, the one passage where the painting lets a real bird drift toward something dreamed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKudo was born in Hirosaki, Aomori in 1915 and painted for eight decades. He took his subjects from the small life of the northern countryside, grasses, insects, birds and fallen leaves, and treated them not as natural history but as a poetry of living things.

A slender marten checks its stride and turns to face us, blue eyes wide above a snow-white mask, its long body still half hidden in the ochre grasses. Above it, an akebia vine has split open to show its dark seeds; below, a drift of wild white asters keeps flowering as the season closes. Nothing dramatic happens, and that is the point: the title names the particular pensiveness that autumn brings, and the whole picture is tuned to it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKojin Kudo (1915-2011) spent a long career on exactly this register. Born to a farming family in Hirosaki in Aomori, the snow country of northern Japan, he moved to Tokyo in 1934, studied at the Kawabata Painting School and then under Toyoshiro Fukuda, and after the war became one of the leading voices in the movement to renew Japanese-style painting, helping to found the Sogakai group in 1974 and teaching as professor at Tokyo University of the Arts. Critics have long noted the unlikely pairing behind his work: the small plants, insects and animals of the Tsugaru countryside he watched as a boy, rendered with the visionary charge he found in Hieronymus Bosch and William Blake. His awards include the Minister of Education Award for Fine Arts (1988) and the Mainichi Art Award (1992), and his work is held by the Aomori Museum of Art and the Hiratsuka Museum of Art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePainted in mineral pigments on paper in the traditional nihonga technique, the surface here rewards close looking: powdered pigment laid in soft, breathing gradations for the mist, dry brushwork for the grasses, and thick opaque white built up petal by petal for the asters. The animal's fur is drawn in fine single-hair strokes over a warm cream ground. It is a small, intimate painting made to be lived with rather than declaimed - a quiet encounter between one creature and one moment of the year.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48389494407406,"sku":null,"price":122325.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/IMG_7744.jpg?v=1785052407"},{"product_id":"koh-shimizu-coolness-涼","title":"Koh Shimizu - Coolness (涼)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 313.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKoh Shimizu (Japan, b.1983)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eUndated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMineral pigments on paper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)33.3cm, (W)33.3cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed Size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)45.4cm, (W)45.4cm, (D)5.0cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRarity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33.574%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 66.065%; height: 58.7812px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRed square relief seal hand-stamped by the artist at lower right of the painting, confirmed in close-up photograph.

Koh Shimizu separates each fish by breed rather than repeating a single form: a calico ryukin, a black demekin with protruding eyes, orange and white ryukin, and a brown-mottled wakin all move on slightly different planes of depth. Beneath them, soft grey shadows fall on the pale bed of the pool, so the viewer reads the water not by painting the water itself but by the distance between each fish and its own shadow. The surface is worked in fine, restless ripple lines over a silver-toned mineral ground that shifts as the light moves across it, giving the picture a faint metallic shimmer in person that photographs only partly capture. Against this cool grey the vermilion and orange of the fish read as the only warm accents, and the tension between them is the subject of the work: the title translates as coolness, the sensation of relief that summer water gives. Shimizu has built his career on exactly this problem, the rendering of light and transparency on a water surface, and this small square panel is a concentrated example of it. The work is unsigned in brush but carries the artist's red seal impressed at the lower right, and it is presented in its original box-style frame with a deep grey-green fabric face and a silver inner liner.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48389524652270,"sku":null,"price":69900.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/IMG_7760.jpg?v=1785053957"},{"product_id":"keigetsu-matsubayashi-fruits-果物","title":"Keigetsu Matsubayashi - Fruits (果物)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100.071%; height: 58.8px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eKeigetsu Matsubayashi (Japan, 1876-1963)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eUndated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColor on silk, hanging scroll\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)40.0cm, (W)49.4cm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed Size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)143.0cm, (W)69.0cm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRarity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Unique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSigned Keigetsu Sanjin at the end of a two-line inscription, upper right, with a red seal below.

The scroll is kept in a wood box titled, signed and sealed by the artist, which is itself housed in a second outer box, an unbroken chain of documentation linking the painting to the artist's own hand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49618783109358,"sku":null,"price":350000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/IMG_8345.jpg?v=1790063430"},{"product_id":"kansetsu-hashimoto-myna-bird-in-snow-雪中哥鳥","title":"Kansetsu Hashimoto - Myna Bird in Snow (雪中哥鳥)","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 100.071%; height: 392px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKansetsu Hashimoto (Japan, 1883-1945)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eUndated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterials\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInk and color on silk\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)35.0cm, (W)41.8cm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed Size\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(H)141.0cm, (W)61.8cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRarity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePainting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 58.8px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.4536%; height: 58.8px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.2254%; height: 58.8px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSigned Kansetsu in ink at lower right, with a red oval seal beneath.

Kansetsu Hashimoto renders the bird in dense, saturated ink, picking out the white wing patches, the yellow bill and the pale-ringed eye with a few precise lines drawn from his Shijo-school training in direct observation, while the snow itself is left almost undrawn, suggested only by soft grey washes and the bare silk ground. Scattered crimson plum blossoms supply the single warm accent, bringing life to an otherwise near-monochrome winter scene. The myna is a classical Chinese painting subject, and its choice here reflects the artist's lifelong study of Chinese classics and his repeated journeys to China from 1913, which shaped the naturalistic manner he called new Nanga. Authentication evidence is unusually complete for a work of this scale: the ink signature and the oval relief seal sit at the lower right of the silk, the lid of the original wood storage box carries the title in the artist's brushwork, and the inside of the same box bears his signature and red seal. The box is further protected by an outer case.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49618841698542,"sku":null,"price":300000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/1946\/4174\/files\/IMG_8356.jpg?v=1790065846"}],"url":"https:\/\/tokyodealersstock.com\/collections\/japanese-paintings.oembed?page=2","provider":"Tokyo Dealers Stock","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
