KANO ISEN'IN NAGANOBU: DARUMA CROSSING THE YANGZI RIVER ON A REED
Est: €800 - €1,500
KANO ISEN'IN NAGANOBU: DARUMA CROSSING THE YANGZI RIVER ON A REED By Kano Isen'in Naganobu (1775-1828), signed Isen'in Edo hitsu with seal Fujiwara Eishin Japan, early 19th century, Edo period (1615-1868) Ink and gouache on silk. Mounted as a hanging scroll on a silk brocade frame with lacquered wood jikusaki (roller ends). Executed using only a few long, flowing strokes to define Daruma’s robes as he sails across the Yangzi River on a single reed to continue his journey to promote Zen. Inscriptions: Signed to the lower left ‘Isen'in Edo hitsu’ [Brushed by Isen'in, Edo] 伊川院江戸筆 with seal ‘Fujiwara Eishin’ 藤原栄信. Image SIZE 103.7 x 35 cm, SIZE incl. mounting 193 x 47.7 cm Condition: Very good condition with minor wear. Few folds with associated repairs. Daruma was a sixth-century Indian sage who is credited with transmitting Zen Buddhist teachings to China. After an unsuccessful audience with the Chinese emperor Liang Wudi (r. 502–49), Bodhidharma “broke off a reed, crossed the Yangzi River, and proceeded to the Shaolin Temple [on Mount Song in Henan Province].” It is said that he was so dedicated to attaining enlightenment that he cut off his own eyelids to prevent himself from falling asleep during meditation. He is thus always depicted with a stern expression of intense concentration. Isen’in Naganobu was the son and pupil of Kano Yosen'in Korenobu, whom he succeeded as seventh-generation head of the Kobikicho branch of the Edo Kano school that had been founded by Kano Naonobu (1607-50). As such he would have had privileged access to study antique Chinese and Japanese paintings in the collections of the Shogunate and feudal lords. Naganobu was granted the title 'hogen' ('Eye of the Law') in 1802 and was subsequently further elevated to the highest 'hoin' ('Seal of the Law') rank in 1816. He served as a court painter for the shogunate. Museum comparison: Compare a closely related scroll painting of Daruma Crossing the Yangtze River, by Kano Tanyu, 17th century, in the collection of the Seattle Art Museum, accession number 34.102.
