A dragon gallivants about the white crackled surface of this bun-shaped Mizusashi hand painted by important Meiji period artist Imao Keinen enclosed in a signed wooden box.

Goma speckles and ash cover the top of this beautiful rolled lotus leaf dish dating from the later Edo (19th c.) enclosed in an old wooden box. The veins of the leaf stand out prominently on the back and underside. The bottom also shows charring and heat scorching in sharp contrast to the thick deposit of ash glaze on the top. The dish is 30 x 19.5 x 6 cm (12 x 8 x 2-1/2 inches). There are 2 old repairs to the edges, otherwise is in fine condition.

Ducks snuggled into their warm down, blotches of color as if seen through the water washed glass of a window by Hirafuku Hyakusui.

The scroll is 48.5 x 204 cm and is in fine condition but for faint foxing in the lower extremities. A very unusual work by this varied artist.
