About the Item

A wonderfully designed and beautifully hand painted tea ceremony tray/plate by esteemed Japanese artist and master potter Ogata Kenzan (1663-1743). Kenzan is widely considered to be Japan's most famous ceramic artist. This piece dates back to the Edo Period (1603-1868) Ogata Kenzan (尾形乾山), whose original name was Ogata Shinsei, was born in 1663 in Kyoto, Japan. Kenzan studied with the potter Nonomura Ninsei and eventually established his own kiln. Kenzan is known for his distinctive style and motifs which often featured freely brushed grasses, blossoms, flowers, and birds. His works were famed for their perfect relation between design and shape. He often collaborated on the decoration of pottery with his older brother, the Japanese artist Ogata Korin, after whom the style known as Rinpa (Rimpa) was named. After his passing in 1743, subsequent Japanese potters inherited the name Ogata Kenzan (none were blood-related) as an homage to the original pottery master. The tray/plate features a rectangular shape that only the original Kenzan produced and hand painted pair of eggplant decoration modeled from his Eggplant painting with written poem (”Ripen! Eggplants, Grow and grow, eggplants, Ripen! Eggplants, Should you not ripen, become a pasted fabric picture on the shelf”) which can be found on display at the Fukuoka Art Museum in Japan. The piece is signed on the base and sealed in red in the front corner. It comes with a wooden tomobako storage box with written notation that translates as "Kenzan Eggplant Rectangular plate". A rare, quite scarce, and special work that would clearly stand out and be a great addition to any Japanese or Asian pottery/ ceramic collection. Bowl dimensions: 1,4" high, 9.85" wide, 7.75" deep Box: 3.15" high, 11" wide, 9" deep.
