KATSUKAWA SHUNSHO (1726-1793): BIJIN AND CHILDREN AT NEW YEAR By Katsukawa Shunsho (1726-1793), signed Kyokurosei Katsu Shunsho ga, and with a circular seal Japan, 18th century, Edo period (1615-1868) Ink, watercolors, gouache, gold paint and gofun (calcified crushed shell) on silk. Mounted as a hanging scroll within a silk brocade frame, with red lacquer jikusaki (roller ends). Depicting, in traditional Nikuhitsu Ukiyo-e painting style, a bijin (beauty) carrying an infant at her shoulder, while gazing down at another child who holds up a hagoita (paddle for playing the New Year hanetsuki game), a New Year kadomatsu with bamboo at the lower right. Inscriptions: Signed to the lower right, 旭朗井勝春章画‘Kyokurosei Katsu Shunsho ga’ [Painted by Katsu (Katsukawa) Shunsho, art name (go) Kyokurosei] and with a circular seal SIZE (image) 99 x 30 cm, SIZE (incl. mounting) 193 x 49.5 cm Condition: Excellent condition with only minor wear and slight creasing. Colors are very well preserved. With a tomobako storage box, bearing an old, inscribed paper label, reading: 春章美人画 Shunsho bijinga [A painting of beauty by Shunsho]. Shunsho Katsukawa (1726-1793) was a Japanese artist and printmaker, known for his pioneering contributions to the ukiyo-e style and as the founder of the Katsukawa school. Shunsho's work, especially his yakusha-e prints, introduced a new level of realism and detail to the genre. Beyond his actor prints, his bijin-ga paintings are considered by many to be masterpieces. As a student of Miyagawa Shunsui, Shunsho honed his skills and eventually broke away to establish his own distinctive style. His influence extended beyond his own work, as he mentored other artists such as Shuncho, Shun'ei, and Hokusai. Shunsho's contributions to ukiyo-e were multifaceted. He experimented with various print formats, including hoso-e, triptych, pentaptych, and introduced innovative techniques like large portrait-style heads and detailed backstage scenes. His bijin-ga paintings showcased his ability to capture the beauty of women and the intricacies of their surroundings. The Idemitsu Museum (Tokyo) held a special exhibition, in 2016, introducing Nikuhitsu Ukiyoe paintings of Katsuskawa Shunsho to commemorate the 290th year since the birth of the artist.

SALES TAX: Online purchases from RBFineArts CFL Inc. may be subject to sales tax. Please see the following for more details. If you are tax-exempt, you can submit your tax-exempt certificate to prevent the collection of tax. a) Out of state taxes: As a result of recent and ongoing legislation, most U.S. states now require businesses to collect and remit sales tax on online purchases made from their states. Regardless of where sellers are located, they are required to charge tax on internet orders if the state mandates it. Each state has different requirements and thresholds on what is taxed and how much. Note that purchases shipped to or picked up in states that do not impose sales tax will not be subject to tax. b) Sales Tax Exemption: Lake County Florida state sales tax is 7%. Applicable Sales or use taxes will be added to the purchase price of taxable purchases. To be sales tax exempt, a current sales tax exemption certificate, including sales tax exemption number, must be presented to RBFineArts CFL Inc to avoid paying sales tax. AUCTION CATALOGS: Catalogs, brochures, and internet descriptions are guides only based on information from sources believed to be reliable, but their accuracy cannot be guaranteed or warranted. The auctioneer will not be liable for any errors or omissions. Statements made by Auctioneer and/or staff of Auctioneer whether oral or written, are only opinions and should not be construed as statements of fact. All measurements are approximate. a) Rugs: RBFineArts CFL Inc does not guarantee the names or patterns of any Oriental rugs. All rug dimensions are approximate. b) Jewelry: Regarding jewelry, all weights, grades, sizes, and metal content(s) are approximate. c) Clocks and Watches: Due to their delicate nature, all clocks and watches are sold as not working even though they may be working. d) Antiques: Antiques, by the very nature of their age, have wear that reflects their years of use. As a result, honest wear from use is to be expected and is sometimes the proof that an item is an antique. Normal wear will not be noted in the description. e) Artwork: Because artwork is known to be copied from pre-existing examples, the dating of such objects is often difficult to ascertain and opinions vary from expert to expert. Due to this, RBFineArts CFL Inc strongly suggests all potential bidders or a representative to meticulously inspect any and all items prior to bidding. Any reference to a specific time period and/or culture are only the opinion of RBFineArts CFL Inc and are not a guarantee of authenticity. If the bidder or a representative cannot inspect an item in person prior to the auction, then RBFineArts CFL Inc strongly suggests that you do not place a bid on the lot. Buyers who would like to know the fine points regarding the condition should call 877-660-3271 or (352) 508-5738 or info@rbfinearts.net, prior to the auction. RBFineArts CFL Inc advises buyers to examine the item before placing a bid. All other guarantees of authenticity of authorship, expressed or implied, are hereby disclaimed.

REGISTRATION: Bidder must register for the Auction before his/her bid will be accepted. Proper identification and credit card information will be required. Auctioneer reserves the right to refuse to register any prospective bidder for any reason. CUSTOMER AND CLIENT CONDUCT: While visiting our gallery to preview auction items, to pick up any items, or to drop off any items, should you act in a way that causes offense or might cause danger to others or which risks damage to property belonging to others you will be asked to promptly leave, and face law enforcement being called. Further, RBFineArts CFL Inc reserves the right to hold you liable for reimbursement for any expenses incurred because of any damage or injury. We expect all correspondence by phone or online to be respectful, any rude, harassing, or offensive behavior may result in actions including canceled sales and/or being blocked on all bidding platforms and in extreme cases being reported to law enforcement. Any request to alter documents with the intent to defraud insurance or government entities will be summarily declined and reported to appropriate authorities. ABSENTEE BIDS: Please adhere to the bidding increments. It is possible that an item could go to another bidder for the same amount as your absentee bid. For example, if your maximum Internet bid on an item is $325.00 and the required opening bid is $300.00, the Internet auction software will only bid $300.00 since that is all that is required to start the Auction. The Auction begins with you at $300.00. The next increment would be $325.00, if no one else bids you will be declared the winner. If a live auction bidder bids $325.00, they are at $325.00, not you. We always encourage bidders to bid by phone or to leave absentee bids through our gallery to avoid this. To make an absentee bid with our physical location instead of an online absentee bid, please call the storefront at 1-877-660-3271 or (352) 508-5738. AUCTION PROCEDURES: RBFineArts CFL Inc. auctions items at approximately 60 lots per hour. Occasionally, the bidding software or your internet connection may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction or the floor may respond before the internet bid is presented to the auctioneer. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid for the live Internet auction before the auction begins as insurance to avoid this. Occasionally, the Auctioneer may eliminate or reject an Internet bid, or the auctioneer may reopen a lot after the close of the live internet bidding. In this case, we may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via the internet, you agree that RBFineArts CFL Inc. may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Internet bids are treated just like floor bids. The Auctioneer reserves the right to reject any bids that are deemed inappropriate or withdraw any item before or during the sale.
