      • Signed Japanese Early Edo K. Yukinobu Silk Painting
        Sep. 16, 2021

        Signed Japanese Early Edo K. Yukinobu Silk Painting

        Est: $3,800 - $5,700

        Kiyohara Yukinobu (Japanese, 1643-1682). A stunning painting on silk by Kiyohara Yukinobu, a female painter associated with the Kano School during the early Edo period who was among the most talented artists of the Kano School. The subject is the poet Ariwara no Narihira visiting Prince Koretaka, an episode from the "Tales of Ise" - a Japanese uta monogatari (collection of waka poems and narratives of the Heian period). The young rider is dressed in green robes, and the horse is adorned in vermilion fittings. He looks back toward the youth walking behind on an apparently windy day, given their billowing vestments. Leafy tree boughs and clouds provide the scene's natural context. Yukinobu's penchant for conveying harmony and balance is demonstrated by this composition. Size (framed): 40.5" L x 19" W (102.9 cm x 48.3 cm) Kiyohara Yukinobu, one of the very few known female painters of the Edo period, was the daughter of Kusumi Morikage (ca. 1620–1690), an outstanding painter who also transformed conventional themes from Muromachi ink painting with his personal style. According to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, "The Kano school was the longest lived and most influential school of painting in Japanese history; its more than 300-year prominence is unique in world art history. Working from the fifteenth century into modern times, this hereditary assemblage of professional, secular painters succeeded in attracting numerous patrons from the most affluent social classes by developing, mastering, and promoting a broad range of painting styles, pictorial themes, and formats." Provenance: private Evergreen, Colorado, USA collection; ex-private Denver, Colorado, USA, collection, acquired 1960 to 2000 All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
