Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Japanese Collectors and What They Collect An unexpected message from Professor Tsuboi: "It would be very convenient for you to see the exhibition of Japanese toys at Marquis Tokugawa's. I will go with you." Knowing that the Professor was the "adviser" of the Marquis in his scientific interests, we accepted the invitation as official and were soon on the way. The Marquis is the head of one of the three divisions of the famous old family which for more than two hundred years furnished the actual rulers of Japan, the Tokugawa Shoguns, beginning with lyeyasu about the year 1600 and ending with the restoration of the Mikado to actual power in 1868. He is a man of taste and public spirit. He maintains a great library, semi-public, on his splendid grounds and it was in this library building that the exhibition was being held and that we were received. A crowd of guests was present, but companions of his adviser demanded personal attention and we were shown distinguished courtesy. Taken into a private tea-room, four of us - the Marquis, his secretary, Professor Tsuboi and myself - took tea and ate daimyal cakes bearing the famous mon or crest of the Tokugawa family.

Book Synopsis Japanese Masterworks from the Price Collection by :
Download or read book Japanese Masterworks from the Price Collection written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joe Price purchased his first Japanese painting in the 1950s, under the influence of Frank Lloyd Wright. Over the next five decades, he and his wife Etsuko would collect more than 200 masterpieces from the Edo period (1615-1868), a time when Japan had isolated itself from the rest of the world. Curiously, during that period of national seclusion, independent and diversely creative artists flourished as never before. Today, the Etsuko and Joe Price Collection is placed among the finest in the world. The detailed patterns evident in many of the works reflect the high regard artists of the period held for textile designers. The expressiveness in the eyes of the various animals, demons, deities, and people depicted suggest that they all inhabited the same world rather than different spiritual levels- the prominent religious theory of the time.The animal world becomes more animated, landscapes have their own light, spirits are alive, past becomes present, evoking a mood that suggests familiarity with all worlds, above and below. At the collection's core are screens, hanging scrolls, fans, and some of the finest examples of the distinctive, hauntingly preternatural renderings of animal life by Ito Jakuchu (1716-1800), one of the most innovative and imaginative of Kyoto's eighteenth-century painters. Jakuchu's prominence in recent decades has been greatly aided by the Price's intensive interest in his work.

Kirby of the American Art Association, New York, 1907 And there is one grateful quality that will be found everywhere pervading Japanese art - Humor. One would almost think that more than half the time the Japanese artist's intention was humorous. He seems to revel in the monstrous and horrible, and yet his monstrosity is so humorous that it has no terror in it. No doubt this is due to the fact that he has been brought up, so to speak, on familiar terms with dragons and imps and horned demons, his mythology and religion dealing almost exclusively with them. More than not being afraid, he likes the oddity of them, and it amuses him to picture them, in paint or lacquer, and to imagine strange and awful grimaces for them to make, and bone-racking positions for them to twist themselves into. But beyond the humor in monsters and grotesques, he finds the amusing side of the work uppermost everywhere, and with a chuckle in his throat he slashes away with his brush, having a good time, and producing marvellously fresh and spirited things. There is evident always a joy in the work - which seems among us now a thing much to be sought after. Possibly. We have learned the need of it from other sources, but truly the Japanese are the best examples that could be found of the success of the principle.
