About the Item

[Authentic work] ◆ Seiki Yokoyama ◆ Landscape ◆ Rural landscape ◆ Japanese painting ◆ Shijo school ◆ Hand-painted ◆ Paperback ◆ Hanging scroll ◆ Seiki Yokoyama [Art yearbook appraised value 1.8 million yen] 1792 ( Kansei 4) - 1864 (Meiji 1) Japanese painting, Shijo school Yokoyama Seiki (1793-1865) was a student of Matsumura Keibun (1779-1843), a leading Shijo school painter. Seiki excelled at bird and flowers, and landscape paintings. [Birthplace/master lineage] Kyoto (Kyoto Prefecture) / Keifumi Matsumura [Biography, style, etc.] Studied under Keifumi Matsumura and mastered the Shijo school of painting techniques. He excelled in all painting subjects, including birds and beasts, flower petals, landscapes, and figures, and worked with Kishi Mountains, Bunrin Shiokawa, Raiaki Nakajima, and others. At that time, it was called one of the four great families of the Heian period. He also presided over the ``Higashiyama Shunju Exhibition'' and displayed his works at restaurants in Kyoto, pioneering exhibitions in Japan, and further demonstrated his artistic ability when constructing the Kinri Imperial Palace in the Ansei era. This work is drawn by hand and on paper. The box is a combined box. The paper has some small stains, wrinkles, and wrinkles, but is generally in good condition. There are some small stains and wrinkles on the cover, but it is generally in good condition. This is a guaranteed genuine product, so please bid accordingly. Size: Approximately [height 218cm x width 71cm/(main paper) 127cm x 57cm] Stylistically, the Shijō style can best be described as a synthesis of two rival styles of the time. Maruyama Ōkyo was an experienced and expert painter of sumi-e ink paintings, and accomplished a great degree of realism in his creations, emphasizing direct observation of depicted subjects which was a direct contravention of the officially sponsored schools of the time, Kanō and Tosa, which emphasized decorativeness with highly formalized and stylized figures taught to its students via copying paintings of past masters. The Kanō and Tosa schools had become bywords for rigid formalism by this time. Meanwhile, a number of artists, rebelling against Ōkyo's realism, formed the nanga ("southern pictures") school, basing their style largely on the Southern school of Chinese painting. The artists of the Shijō school sought to reconcile the differences between these two styles, creating works that synthesized the best elements of both. The school's style focuses on a Western-influenced objective realism, but achieved with traditional Japanese painting techniques. It concentrates less on the exact depiction of its subject, but rather on expressing the inner spirit and usually has an element of playfulness and humor compared to the Maruyama school. Popular motifs include tranquil landscapes, kachō (bird and flower), animals, and traditional subjects from Chinese poetic and Confucian lore, but there is generally little or no interest in legends, history, or classical literature.
