Antique and Largest Ever Malay Brunei Ritual Bronze Kettle w. Animal Sculptures
Located in Lisse, NL
Stunning 'Asian tribal art' festivity and ritual vessel with Chinese influences.
This amazingly ornate, meaningful and highly decorative antique is entirely handcrafted and made of bronze. When you look at all the rare decorations, the sheer size and the stunning bronze patina of this early 1900s water kettle then you would almost forget to think about how difficult it must have been circa 1900 to get the raw materials and the tools to actually be able to create a piece like this. This bronze spouted vessel comes with a wide variety of real animals, but one can also see the Chinese influence in the Malay region, because this antique also has large dragons on either side, a Buddhist temple lion on top and possibly also a dragon's head from which the actual spout emerges (image 15 and 16). This antique water kettle...

Blossom and Tree Scene Meiji Period Scroll Japan 19c Artist Araki Kanpo
Located in Amsterdam, Noord Holland
If it is good enough for the Japanese emperor :)
The painting's inscription says that it was painted in the artist's 82nd year, which would be 1913.
In the early Meiji Period following the Buncho ideal of hasshu kengaku ('learning eight schools'), Kanpo expanded his talents to incorporate Western painting techniques and began studying oil painting with Kawakami Togai (1827-1881) and Kunisawa Shinkuro (1847-1877). He achieved notable recognition as an oil painter and apparently was awarded the honor of painting a portrait of the Empress Dowager. Later Kanpo returned to Nihonga and continued to receive numerous honors for his work. He received a silver medal (2nd place) at the Tokyo Prefecture Crafts Competition in 1887; 2nd place with a painting of peacocks...
