[KAKEMONO - HANGING SCROLL] Tsuda SEIFU^, artist. "MOMOKAWA" LANDSCAPE PAINTING OF A MOUNTAIN STREAM, DANCING CRANES. Hanging scroll, image size 135.2 X 33.4 cm. Beautifully mounted on brocade with BONE jiku. The painting is signed and sealed by Seifu^ (1880-1978), an extraordinarily influential artists and designer who painted in oils, in traditional watercolor on silk and paper, created designs and bookbindings, etc., etc. A protege of such masters as the designer Furuya Ko^rin and the author and poet Natsume So^seki and later an influence upon generations of creative artists, Seifu has here created a free and easy Nihonga work in color ink on silk, dated Taisho^ 10 [1921] and sealed by him. Its eccentric spirit seems to have a touch of Tomioka Tessai to it. Certainly they must have met, as Seifu^ illustrated several design books with calligraphed encomia done by Tessai in the 1900s. But, in any case, it is also reminiscent of some of the book-bindings he was doing during the same period. The brushwork and calligraphy are first-rate, the presentation impeccable. In a wooden box and worn outer cardboard slipcase with written title label. Click here for full details of this book, to ask a question or to buy it on-line.
