A new essay by Dr.Takahashi on Watanabe Seitei’s birds! vol.17!



Indisputably unique, this is one analysis on Watanabe Seitei you cannot afford to miss. As Dr. Takahashi conducts another one of his ornithological investigations on Seitei’s paintings of birds, he welcomes us with the 17th addition to his essay series. This month’s theme is the Horned Owl. Notice how Seitei’s depiction of the owl evidences his take on a new challenge.

Work of the month



Ikeno Taiga, Nakai Riken ”Peach blossom spring”

Ink and color on paper, with a box signed and sealed by Yamanaka Rankei, illustrated in the sale catalogue of the property of a certain family at Osaka Bijutsu Club on 15 December 1935, illustrated in the sale catalogue of the property of Koshu Imai family and a certain family at Kanazawa Bijutsu Club on 28 November 1936
132×55cm / 207×72cm

Ikeno Taiga is considered one of the great masters of Japanese literai paintings, displaying a talent for both calligraphy and paintings. Depictions of the Peach Blossoms Spring derive from the famous fable by a Chinese poet Tao Yuanming. The inscriptions to painting by a Confucian scholar Nakai Riken also refers the story. The work was created in 1771 from the period of maturity of the artist. Mountains are outlined with a dried brushwork and light and shadow is described by applying faint red and blue color to the side of mountains. A river flowing slowly seems to invite fisherman to the Shangri-La.
