The moon rises slowly into the evening sky, draped in the robes of an ancient pine, a fine early 20th century screen by Tatewaki Taizan, performed with ink on silk with a dash of pale gofun. It has been fully Remounted with a simple black lacquered frame accentuating the stately manner of the subject, with sturdy blue cloth backing. At that time some splits in the silk were repaired. Each panel measures 6 feet by 34 inches (182.5 x 86.5 cm). Assuming art-forces work the same throughout the world we may date this circa 1912, the year Tsuji Kako presented a nearly identical scene to the Bunten National Exhibition. Tatewaki Taizan (1886-1970) was born in Hyogo but was selected to study at the prestigious Kyoto Special School of Painting under Takeuchi Seiho, a student of Kono Bairei (from whom Tsuji Kako also learned). He was displayed at the Nitten and Bunten National Exhibitions. He was awarded the Order of Cultural Merit from Hyogo Prefecture in 1965. |
