Japanese Painting Meiji / Taisho Period Scroll by Dokuzan Hashimoto Zen Buddhism

About the Item

Hashimoto Dokuzan was a leading figure in early twentieth-century Zen Buddhism, serving as abbot of the major monastery Shōkokuji in the city of Kyoto and served as chief, kanchō, of the Shōkokuji branch of the Rinzai sect of Zen from 1909 to 1933. Before he entered the priesthood, he trained to be a painter under the celebrated literati artist Tomioka Tessai and continued to paint throughout his life. The present worked shows a lone Chinese man in a deep woods, leaning over the railing of a stone bridge to gaze at rushing stream below—a scene of communion with nature that East Asian painters have turned to and reinterpreted for a thousand years. Painted entirely in ink, Hashimoto contrasts the dry, detailed brushwork of the figure, bridge, and the foreground landscape motifs with soft wet dots in a range of dilute ink for the trees’ dense foliage.

    Located in Chicago, IL
    Although western painting was initially embraced during Japan’s Meiji period (1868-1912), artists brought on a revival of traditional painting styles as they sought to create a modern Japanese style with roots in the past. This exquisite hanging scroll demonstrates the preference for soft layering of gray tones with judicious use of color. The landscape is rendered in soft ink washes that subtly distinguish between water, mountain, and sky. The scroll painting...

  • Antique hanging scroll of Japanese cat/Late Edo-Meiji period/Cat painting
    Located in Sammu-shi, Chiba
    This is a picture of a cat drawn by a person named "Toshizumi Nitta" from the end of the Edo period to the beginning of the Meiji period. She is a very simple and cute cat. He is a vassal of the Tokugawa Shogunate, born in Ota City, Gunma Prefecture (southern part of Gunma Prefecture). He was related to the Tokugawa family and lived in a large mansion in the Ota clan in Gunma prefecture. However, the Nitta family's territory was very small, and they were by no means a wealthy vassal. He seems to have lived quite poorly. So he painted cats and sold them to people. The Nitta family continued to draw pictures of this cat for four generations. "Nitta toshizumi" is equivalent to the fourth generation. During the Edo period, sericulture was thriving in the Kanto region. Cats were said to be the gods of silkworms, as they drive away mice, the natural enemies of silkworms. It was the Nitta family who drew such a cat on paper, pasted it in the silkworm chamber, and sold it as a mouse repellent. There were also other monks who painted pictures of cats, but the Nitta family in particular was related to the Tokugawa family, so people believed that paintings of cats had special powers. , a lot of paintings...
