Kakemono-e ( vertical diptych ) showing a tiger peering round a giant bamboo

Print by Kikugawa Eizan, 菊川英山 (Kikugawa EIZAN) (1804)

Catalog note / 解説

A kakemono-e ( vertical diptych ) showing a tiger peering round a giant bamboo. Although Toyohiro and Toyokuni I produced kakemono-e during the 1800-1804 period, Eizan is generally identified with the format and published many during 1804-1817. The style used borrows from Korean paintings of tigers. No publisher’s seal, c.1804-1817. Another impression illustrated in Ukiyo-e no bi, nishiki-e no keifu, Yamaguchi Prefecture Municipal Museum, n.d., p.84/85. Good impression. Very good colour and condition with the sheets separated to join accurately. Signed Kikukawa Eizan hitsu. Status: Available
