Joichi Hoshi
Joichi Hoshi was a Japanese printmaker best known for his depictions of trees in centered compositions. The trees are often shown leafless with monochromatic backgrounds, sometimes incorporating gold or silver leaf into the layers of the intricate woodblock process. Born in 1913 in Niigata, Japan, Hoshi began his artistic career after working as an elementary school teacher in Taiwan for several years. He later became a mimeograph printer and started creating his own prints. The artist graduated from the Musashino University of Fine Arts in 1956. Before focusing on his recurring motif of trees in the 1970s, Hoshi depicted galaxies and constellations. He died on June 17, 1979 in Tokyo, Japan. Today, Hoshi’s works are held in the collections of the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Cincinnati Art Museum, among others.

- Japanese Hand-Painted and Embroidered Silk Kimono with Mt. Fuji Eagles, FramedLocated in San Francisco, CAA majestic late 1980s Japanese Showa period Sakai clan hand-painted, dyed, and embroidered silk kimono with eagles and Mt. Fuji in a monumental custom-made silk-lined giltwood frame. Features an epic and incredibly well executed hand-painted, hand-dyed, and hand-embroidered scene depicting a pair of gorgeous golden eagles—one with natural colored plumage and the other a fantastical all-white—in a finely-bristled gnarled pine tree with a snow-covered navy blue Mt. Fuji looming in the distance. Set against a cream background with black on the shoulders and tail, and white-capped grey waves undulating below. While impressive at a distance, the kimono’s exceptional artistry and craftsmanship become even more apparent when viewed up close, with exquisitely detailed hand-painted metallic gold and silver line work throughout, and hand-sewn metallic gold and silver thread embroidery embellishing the eyes, beaks, and talons. Presented in a very heavy custom wood frame with silk ecru back and black trim inside, gilt front, black edges, and acrylic glazing. Since ancient times in Japan, Mt. Fuji has been a symbol of faith and admiration, eagles have represented the great power of nature, and pine trees have represented longevity, good fortune, and steadfastness. Further adding to this kimono’s lore, a trio of Kamon crest...Category
