About the Item
Amaranth and Rooster
Artist unknown
Hanging scroll, ink, mineral pigment and gofun on silk.
Painting inscription: Tojo ??
Painting seal: Tojo ??
circa 1930
Dimensions:
Scroll: 200 cm x 102 cm (79” x 40”)
Image: 138 cm x 85 cm (54” x 33.5”).
Though unlisted, Tojo was clearly a talented Nihonga painter. The artist paints with superb naturalism a scene of delicate beauty. This painting expresses the warmth of an early autumn evening with shadows lengthening in the foreground. Working in the naturalist tradition that reached its height during the first decades of the 20th century, the painter frames the composition as if looking through a window or the lens of a camera. The effect is at once visually brilliant and overflowing with realistic detail. The composition arcs upwards and towards the right with the vertical stems of the amaranth plant, leading toward the over-reaching vine of the morning glory. The colors of the deeply pigmented amaranth (hageitou) in warm shades of reds and yellows contrast with the cooler greens of the foliage and the soft blue of the scattered morning glory flowers. Hidden amongst the foliage is a white rooster. Its cockscomb blends seamlessly with the rich burgundy leaves and the drape of its tail-feathers anchor the composition.

Taisho period, circa 1920

Dimensions (framed):
H. 159 cm x W. 97 cm x D. 2.5 cm (62.5” x 38” x 1”)
An ornate and complex composition in which the artist explores almost the entire painting surface. The coloration is bold and evocative and the tinted silk ground recreates the warm golden glow of sunset. Soft, luminous brushwork details the black feathers of the roosters, which seem to cloud and blur in counterpoint to the sharper points of the eyes and beaks. Their brilliant red combs balance the composition, echoing the rich burgundy hues of the dahlias; the flowers exquisite and lifelike. Dahlias were an exotic subject favored by painters of the Taisho era.
The painting belongs to the school of Kyoto Nihonga, exemplifying the principles of decorative elegance and consumate brush technique with which it was intimately associated. Painters of the time relied on the Shijo school method, basing the forms of the composition from life sketches. Sometimes they were then integrated with elements derived from Chinese bird and flower...
