About the Item

A fine vintage Japanese woodblock print. Entitled "Kinkaku-ji in Snow". By Tomikichiro Tokuriki (1902 - 1999). Tokuriki came from a family of artists and was first taught by his grandfather. He graduated from Kyoto Art College in 1923. He is also a notable artist in the sosaku hanga (創作版画, literally "creative prints") art movement, a 20th Century development influenced by the West where an artist would handle every single aspect of creating their print. This is contrasted with shin hanga (新版画, literally "new prints), which used the more traditional method of having a rigid team of artist, carver, painter, & publisher working together to create a print. Depicting Kinkaku-ji (the Golden Pavillion, a famous Kyoto temple) during a winter snowfall. This is part of a collection of prints by Tomikichiro entitled "Twenty Views of Kyoto". Simply a lovely print depicting one of Kyoto's most famous sites! Date: 1950s - 1960s Overall Condition: It is in overall good, as-pictured, used estate condition. Condition Details: There is some light edge wear to the frame. Otherwise, there are some fine & light surface scratches and other signs of expected light wear consistent with age.

Antique Japanese Meiji Period Kutani Porcelain Vase by Shoundo / Matsumoto Sahei
Located in Philadelphia, PA
A fine antique Japanese Meiji period Kutani porcelain vase. By Matsumoto Sahei/Shoundo. In an aka-e style decorated throughout in iron red with extensive gilt accents. There are cartouches to either side both with branches of red flower with a backdrop of clouds on a white ground. With 2 figural dragon finial handles. Marked to the base with '九谷松雲堂製' which translates as 'Made by Shoundo of Kutani' Matsumoto Sahei (1851-1918) was a master potter who enjoyed success & recognition during his era. In 1876, Sahei received the artist name Shoundo from the nanga painter Tokuda Kansho - he would use that title for nearly 20 years until passing it onto his son as his successor in 1893. Sahei also has the distinction of taking Tokuda Yasokichi I as an apprentice when the latter was 17-years-old. The Tokuda family is perhaps one of the most famous families of Japanese ceramics: Yasokichi I is credited with revitalizing the lost art of ko-Kutani and Yasokichi I, II, & III were all recognized as "Living National Treasures" during their lifetimes. Shoundo exhibited internationally numerous times at the tail end of the 19th Century. The Keisei Isogaya Museum of Art (which specializes in Meiji Kutani) has a vase of Sahei's that was exhibited in the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition of 1876. He is listed as exhibiting a wide variety of porcelain goods at the 1878, 1889, and 1900 Paris World Exhibitions. He is also listed as exhibiting 'incense burners & porcelain' at the World's Columbian Exhibition held in 1893 in Chicago. The pair of vases that Sahei exhibited in Paris in 1900 bear a strong resemblance to this pair. Simply a wonderfully rare Japanese porcelain...
