About the Item

Pair of large Satsuma vases signed Kinkozan, decorated with scenes inspired by Japanese imperial tradition, crafted with precision and embossed gold. One side of each vase depicts the legendary Emperor Jinmu, surrounded by attendants in a solemn and ceremonial composition. On the opposite side is depicted Empress Jingū, who became during the Meiji era an emblem of female imperial power, as suggested by the phoenix on the hanging kimono, a traditional symbol of a woman's sovereign authority. Both vases bear the Kinkozan signature below the base. Period: Meiji c. 1900. Size: 46 x 22.5 cm. Conservation status: Excellent condition.
