''初夏'' 竹内栖鳳

今までに見たことのない、粋な作品です。 皆様一見して笑われたり、開いた口が塞がらない方もおられます。しかしこの作品には、描き始める前に紙の前にじっと座し、そして筆をとるやいなや瞬く間に仕上げてしまった栖鳳の姿が想像できます。筆には勢いがあり、それゆえに羽がまるで動いている様に見えます。晩年の作品ということで、技術を極めた究極の作品と言えるでしょう。 この作品はこの軸だけで完結せず、花や他の置物を置くことで、絵の中の蜂が外に飛び出すことが出来ます。空間や物語を自由に持ち手が設定できる楽しい作品です。 SOLD

''Early summer'' by Takeuchi Seiho

It is the cool work which I haven't see before. At a glance, everybody laugh and be surprised at this work. However, I can imagine how to drew this picture. Seiho meditated in front of white paper at long time before beginning to draw this work. And he finished the work in seconds when he had a brush. There is force on the writing brush, and that is why a wing of bee seems to flap. This work is drew in his later years. So, it is the ultimate work which was full of his techniques. This work is not concluded with only this scroll. The bee in the picture can jump out outside by putting a flower and other ornaments. It is the pleasant work which we can set a original story by oneself. SOLD
