A finely detailed Japanese hanging scroll (kakejiku) depicting quails (uzura no zu), executed in ink and colour on silk with delicate brushwork and careful attention to naturalistic detail. The composition captures the birds with remarkable sensitivity, reflecting the long-standing appreciation for avian subjects in East Asian painting traditions. Quails have been a favored motif in Japanese art for centuries, symbolizing abundance, harmony, and the changing seasons. The artist skillfully balances the decorative and naturalistic elements of the composition, creating an elegant and tranquil image. The scroll bears an artist’s signature and is accompanied by a double wooden storage box (nijūbako). The outer box is missing its lid. The work originates from an old Japanese private collection (kura-dashi). Japan, Edo period, circa 18th–19th century. Dimensions: * Overall: 182 × 54.5 cm (71.7 × 21.5 in.) * Painting: 103 × 41 cm (40.6 × 16.1 in.) A refined example of traditional East Asian bird painting...

"Je Suis Le Cahier" The Sketchbooks of Picasso hardcover book 1st Edition 1986 The Sketchbooks of Picasso "Je Suis Le Cahier". Pablo Picasso, "Picasso considered all of his works to be entries in his diary; he excluded nothing. The sketchbooks are generic chapters inextricable from his oeuvre. In Picasso's paintings the spontaneity of gesture is deceptive since the manner is which he leaves his tracks visible superficially suggests minimal preparation. Although most of Picasso's solutions appear to be immediately worked out on the canvas, this was far from the fact. Many paintings sprang fully formed as the fulfillment of preconscious models, but very often others were the product of the process of trial solution and discovery through drawing. There are eight sketchbooks for Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, five for the saltimbanques, four for the Luncheon on the Grass series, and two for The rape of the Sabines. In sketchbook No. 171, Picasso inscribed...
