Taki Katei: KOKOKAN GASHO = GENGXIANG GUAN HUASHENG. (The Kokokan Painting Album). 耕香館畫賸 。 瀧和亭 畫 。 東京駿河臺紅梅塢瀧氏耕香館刊雕. Tokyo, 1884. [38]; [40] folded leaves, Japanese style. Portrait, b/w reproductions of paintings throughout. 2 vols. 26x15 cm. Stitched.
GBP 160.00
Late 19th-century, early lithographic edition of a painting album with renditions of Chinese-style model paintings by Taki Katei (1832-1901). Katei was a prominent nanga artist who studied Chinese painting in Nagasaki and made his name in part through book publication. The original edition of this book, the production of which he personally supervised, came out in 1883. This copy, which may not be complete, can be seen as organized in sections: one with landscapes proper; another with bird and flower vignettes; one with elaborate flower arrangements; and a final section with human figures, chiefly monks.
  This is a somewhat later lithographic version. The date is taken from a number of the prefaces. The book has been given a modern Chinese-style stitched binding and the pages have been lined for support. The is some slight staining and wear to some pages, generally not affecting the printed portion. The impression is generally good with very occasional slight blurring of some lines. This copy is lacking a cover page but has a colophon page (relating to the original edition and given in characters above) preserved by overlaid lining paper.
