Título: Luna llena sobre montaña cubierta de pinos, siglo 18

Artista: Watanabe SHIKÔ (Japón, 1683 - 1755)

Acerca de

Nada podría ser más revelador de la estética japonesa única que la misteriosa poesía de esta pantalla, tan abreviada en su entrega como satisfactoria en su efecto. Watanabe Shikô pertenecía a la escuela de pintura japonesa Rinpa, llamada así por Ogata Kôrin (1658-1716) con quien Shikô estudió. Los orígenes de la escuela se remontan a finales del siglo XVI y principios del XVII, cuando los artistas Tawaraya Sôtatsu y Hon'ami Kôetsu intentaron restablecer el estilo brillante y la sensibilidad única del arte aristocrático de la 'edad de oro' de Japón, el período Heian ( 794-1184). Los sellos distintivos de la escuela Rinpa son un efecto decorativo rico pero refinado, logrado a través de un equilibrio compositivo impecable; afición a los lavados e incrustaciones metálicas; y un énfasis en la naturaleza. Aquí la luna llena de otoño se asoma desde la ladera de la montaña,

Maize and Cockscombs, Tawaraya Sôtatsu, 1625, Art Institute of Chicago: Asian Art

During the Edo period, the prosperity and political unification of Japan under the ruling Tokugawa shoguns led to the emergence of a magnificent Japanese decorative style characterized by a love of bold patterns and bright colors. This new style was supported by the military class, a disenfranchised aristocracy, and a thriving class of merchants and entrepreneurs. The surviving half of an original pair, this splendid screen elegantly embodies both the techniques of ancient court painters and the curiosity and confidence so prevalent in the Edo period. Bursting with sensual fullness, the maize and cockscombs are rendered with the accuracy of a botanical drawing, a testimony to the era’s interest in natural science. The appearance of maize, a grain not native to Japan, indicates a willingness to assimilate new subject matter on the part of Edo artists and patrons. Kate S.
