Rinpa Style, attributed to Ryosaku (dates unknown)

Meiji Period
A six-fold screen, in ink, colours and gold on a gold-leaf ground with three groups of maple trees with brilliant foliage, signed Tawaraya Sori hitsu Kaede-zu, Meiji kanoe-tora shigatsu Ryosaku kore o utsusu (Copied by Ryosaku from the Maple Trees screen by Tawaraya Sori in the fourth month of kanoe-tora, year of the tiger, Meiji 23 [1890]). 138cm x 266.6cm (54¼in x 105in).

Footnotes

This is a considerably enlarged copy of a screen by Tawaraya Sori (active 1764-80) in the Feinberg Collection, Bethesda, MD., USA. See Matthew McKelway, Silver Wind: The Arts of Sakai Hoitsu (1761-1828), New York, 2012, cat. no.3. The Sori screen is regarded as an important example of the transition between the styles of Ogata Korin (1658-1716) in Kyoto and his artistic successor Sakai Hoitsu in Edo.
