Located in Long Island City, NY

A rare 19th Century Japanese copper serving tray with cloisonne enamel design. The central part of the tray depicts a wireless cloisonne picture, a coastal landscape view with a full moon. The hieroglyphical signature of the artist is in the lower right. The rims and the backside are decorated with floral ornaments. Blue and black color palette. Collectible Oriental Decor And Applied Arts For Interior Design. Namikawa Sosuke (1847–1910) was a Japanese cloisonné artist,[1] known for innovations that developed cloisonné enamel into an artistic medium sharing many features with paintings.[2][3] He and Namikawa Yasuyuki (no relation)[notes 1] were the most famous cloisonné artists of the 1890 to 1910 period, known as the "golden age" of Japanese enamels.[1] Around 1880 he set up and ran the Tokyo branch of the Nagoya Cloisonné Company.[1] He exhibited his artworks at national and international expositions, where he took an organising role.[2] He was recognised as an Imperial Household Artist and created art works for imperial residences. He sometimes signed his works with the character sakigake (Pioneer) the art work is based off a art work done by Sesshu Toyo Sesshu Toyo (?? ??, c. 1420 – August 26, 1506), also known simply as Sesshu (??), was a Japanese Zen monk and painter who is considered a great master of Japanese ink painting. Initially inspired by Chinese landscapes, Sesshu's work holds a distinctively Japanese style that reflects Zen Buddhist aesthetics.[1] His prominent work captured images of landscapes, portraits, and birds and flowers paintings, infused with Zen Buddhist beliefs, flattened perspective, and emphatic lines.[2] Sesshu was born into the samurai Oda family (???) and trained at Shokoku-ji temple in Kyoto, Japan, as a Zen monk.[1] From his early childhood, Sesshu showed a talent for painting and eventually became widely revered throughout Japan as a wise, reputable Zen scholar, and the greatest painter priest of Zen-Shu.[3] Sesshu worked in a painting atelier whilst training under Tensho Shubun (c. 1418–1463). But upon visiting China, his work betook a distinctive Chinese influence, merging Japanese and Chinese styles to develop his individualistic style of Zen paintings.[3] Sesshu's influence on painting was so wide that many schools of art appointed him their founder.[4] Sesshu's most acclaimed works are Winter Landscape (c. 1470s), Birds and Flowers (1420–1506) and Four Landscape Scrolls...
