Yukawa Shōdo – 湯川松堂 (1868-1955) – Waterfall & Japanese Maple – 滝とイロハモミジ

Yukawa Shōdo was a highly regarded talent during his lifetime and was a renowned master of bijin-ga, as can been seen here. His talent was fostered by Mitani Sadahiro and the great Suzuki Shōnen, who bestowed upon him the kanji for “shō” in his name from his own. A piece of his in the Mishima City Regional Museum can be seen here. Painted and mounted before WWII. Good condition (creases). Very impressive. Majestic talent. Mounted by one of the top mounting artisans in Kyoto. The seal reads “Yukawa painting”. The Shōnen teachings were transmitted successfully. Waterfalls are a zen reflection of one's energy and vitality and are good luck for wealth pouring in. *Please click a second time on the top left corner of the pictures to expand them.
