Description

Emakimono scroll 絵巻物虫と鳥影 Mushi to choei - Insects and shadows of birds - Unknown, after Taki Katei (瀧和亭 1830 – 1901)Superb emakimono find, almost 12 meters long, exquisite paintings in vivid colors of birds, insects, political figures and warriors. The style resembles quite a lot of Taki Katei or Imao Keinen. Superb brushwork, colors somewhat faded. Almost all scenes scanned. The brushwork is precise and meticulous. Enjoy this fine example of emakimono artwork! The scroll is 30 x 1160 cm long, the shaft is bone. There are some stains, yellowish due to age, but no

due to the very limited copies - 200 for the woodblock print and probably 400 for the litho edition
