Description
A Japanese four-section inro made from ceramic with glazed painting with original ensuite Ojime and Netsuke circa 18th century of Edo period signed by Ogata Kenzan (1663–1743).
The rectangular inro with rounded corners and edges features a delicate painting of flying geese over a landscape with autumn grasses surrounding a running stream, a seasonal scenery beloved by Japanese artist during Edo and Meiji Period. The migratory geese are herald of the fall season and often implies a sense of homesickness and missing friends and family afar. The composition on the two sides echoes each other as well as the laconic strokes of painting of the grasses on Ojime and Netsuke, linked with a purple silk cord. The bottom of the inro and one side of the netsuke is signed with Kenzan seal in black glaze.
The Inro, with ojime and netsuke, is attributed to Ogata Kenzan (1663–1743) and was possibly made by him. Kenzan was a celebrated potter, painter and calligrapher from Edo period and associated with Kyō ware and Kiyomizu ware, in which this piece belongs to. Ceramic inros that bear Ogata Kenzan's signature are scarce, especially as a complete set and in near perfect condition.
For two examples including one in the identical circular form, see item AS39-1971, AS38-1971 in the collection of National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourn, Australia. -
