Japanese Contemporary Green Blue Yellow Porcelain Charger by Master Artist, 2
About the Item
Extraordinary Japanese contemporary museum quality signed porcelain charger, magnificently hand painted in mesmerizing shades of the artist's signature green, blue and yellow on a stunning pentagon shape body, with a unique interpretation of the rhinoceros, one of the artist's beloved motifs. This highly acclaimed award-winning master artist has drawn on various animals featured in Buddhist scriptures and religious practice to make his lifework the re-creation of a “Buddhist menagerie.” This piece is inspired by the Rhinoceros Sutra, a very early Buddhist text that extols the virtues of solitary and ascetic life as exemplified by the rhinoceros.
Depicted in this piece are two single-horned Indian rhinoceroses with thickly folded skin that gives them the exaggerated armored appearance. The stubby legs and wart-like bumps that cover the bodies are also characteristic features of this species. In the artist’s rendition, the rhinoceroses look with humanlike eyes that convey an eerie sense of self-awareness.
according to the artist pentagon is a very complicated shape to create in porcelain and tehe size of this charger makes it even more challenging.
Having started his career in the venerable tradition of old Kutani porcelain, the artist faithfully draws on at least one of the prime Kutani colors of yellow, green, red, blue and purple in each of his work. The artist's profile is available upon request.
This outstanding large hand painted porcelain charger comes in a custom made wooden case signed by the artist.
Dimensions: W 20 in D 16 in H 4.5 in.
A few lines from the first part of the Rhinoceros Sutra (Khaggavisana Sutta) follow.
Renouncing violence for all living beings, harming not even a one. Wander alone like a rhinoceros.
In society, there are allurements, and on the heel of allurements, pain… Wander alone like a rhinoceros.
Like a bamboo sprout be un-entangled. Wander alone like a rhinoceros.
As a deer in the wilds, unfettered, forages wherever it wants, the wise person values freedom.
Wander alone like a rhinoceros.
(Adopted from translation from Pali by Thanissaro Bhikku).
