Iwasa Matahei About 1630. Painting on a screen of two panels. A lady with musical instrument and pupil. The Ukioye is a school of Japanese painting and print designing, which for the last three centuries has been the special organ of expression for the common people. Its artists, sprung mostly from the ranks of the people, confined their subjects to the occupations and recreations of their class. Every change of fashion in the gay life of the capital at Yedo was faithfully followed in their drawings; and thus the Ukioye, unlike the hieratic and idealistic schools of earlier days, has the charm of being a complete mirror of Japanese life. At first confined to painting, it soon spread with the discovery of block printing into book illustration; and still later into the elaborate single sheet print which could be used on the wall for a cheap picture. When these prints, at first colored by hand, became embellished with flat tints printed from wooden blocks, the most splendid results of the school were reached. The founder of this school was Iwasa Matahei. Previous to his day, the end of the sixteenth century, Japanese art and civilization were dominated by Chinese ideals, as were the nations of mediaeval Europe by classic tradition. But the overthrow of the Ashikaga court, and the rise to power of upstarts like Hideyoshi, brought Japanese life and character again into the field of interest. It is true that scenes of native court life and of earlier dynastic wars had been occasionally painted by the court artists of the Kano and Tosa schools; but with Matahei began the painting of contemporary life, or genre; and his are the first of the long and full series we possess of scenes in the life of Japanese women of the middle and...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He may very well be the most productive artist of the eighteenth century. Refuting outmoded paradigms of connoisseurship and challenging the assumptions of conventional print scholarship, Allen Hockley elevates this important figure from the status of a minor Edo-period artist. He argues that Koryusai excelled by the most significant measure -- he was a highly successful creator of popular commodities. Employing an "active audience" model, Hockley reshapes the study of ukiyo-e as a.

  • Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
  • Release : 2021-06-21
  • ISBN : 1527571335
  • Pages : 305 pages

Download or read book Collecting and Provenance written by Andrea M. Gáldy and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays highlights the enduring significance of provenance and its implications for historians and art historians, as well as students and researchers engaged in museum studies. It also offers an opportunity to demonstrate its relevance to other fields of expertise, such as conservation, visual culture studies, aesthetics, authentication and connoisseurship versus technology as a means of establishing attributions and detecting forgeries. Provenance is still of vital importance to jurisdiction, whether it concerns property law or ownership. It also remains topical because of the ongoing debates over looted art in the 1930s and 1940s and the illicit trade in antiquities conducted from Iraq and Syria by terrorist groups.

Book The Constructed Other  Japanese Architecture in the Western Mind

Download or read book The Constructed Other Japanese Architecture in the Western Mind written by Kevin Nute and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Constructed Other argues that the assumed otherness of Japanese architecture has made it both a testbed for Western architectural theories and a source of inspiration for Western designers. The book traces three recurring themes in Western accounts of Japanese architecture from the reopening of Japan in the mid-nineteenth century to the present day: a wish to see Western architectural theories reflected in Japanese buildings; efforts to integrate elements of Japanese architecture into Western buildings; and a desire to connect contemporary Japanese architecture with Japanese tradition. It is suggested that, together, these narratives have had the effect of creating what amounts to a mythical version of Japanese architecture, often at odds with historical fact, but which has exercised a powerful influence on the development of building design internationally.
