1775Best.-Nr. 5002Japan: NP 1775. A lovely large water colour showing a woman in traditional geisha clothing holding a Shamisen. Painted onto thin mustard coloured paper this has been laid onto a cream backing sheet also thin paper which has in turn been laid onto a larger sheet of thin paper. The three sheets together giving much more strength than a single thin sheet. The painting itself has been expertly produced but is unsigned. We have priced this as an un-attributable artist. The painting has some small cracks with creasing and a tiny amount of paint loss to it but still a lovely authentic piece of Edo art very similar in style to the portraiture of Katsushika Hokusai even to the background colour of the sheet. It is of a very similar period between 1775 and 1800. The style of the painting including the detailed depiction of clothing patterns and the graceful posture of the figure is characteristic of bijin-ga paintings of beautiful women which were popular in Japanese art during this time. The use of vibrant colors such as deep blue and red and intricate patterns suggests that this piece may have been created by an artist influenced by ukiyo-e a genre of woodblock prints and paintings that flourished during the Edo period. Artists like Kitagawa Utamaro or Suzuki Harunobu were renowned for similar depictions of women in elegant attire.It was possibly intended as a scroll painting. The painted sheet measures 70cm x 24cm. The largest backing sheet and hence work overall measures 81.5cm x 39cm. The shamisen 三味線 also known as sangen 三絃 or samisen all meaning "three strings" is a three-stringed traditional Japanese musical instrument derived from the Chinese instrument sanxian. Geisha's were often skilled Shamisen players and used them to entertain their customers. . Une belle grande aquarelle représentant une femme en tenue traditionnelle de geisha tenant un shamisen Peinte sur un papier fin de couleur moutarde celui-ci a été posé sur une feuille de support crème également en papier fin elle-même posée sur une feuille plus grande de papier fin. Les trois feuilles réunies donnent beaucoup plus de solidité qu'une seule feuille mince. La peinture elle-même a été réalisée par des experts mais elle n'est pas signée. Nous avons fixé le prix comme étant celui d'un artiste non attribuable. La peinture présente quelques petites fissures des plis et une minuscule perte de peinture mais il s'agit toujours d'une belle et authentique œuvre d'art Edo dont le style est très similaire à celui des portraits de Katsushika Hokusai jusqu'à la couleur de fond de la feuille. Elle date d'une période très similaire entre 1775 et 1800. Le style de la peinture y compris la représentation détaillée des motifs des vêtements et la posture gracieuse du personnage est caractéristique des bijin-ga peintures de belles femmes qui étaient populaires dans l'art japonais à cette époque. L'utilisation de couleurs vives comme le bleu profond et le rouge et de motifs complexes suggère que cette pièce a pu être créée par un artiste influencé par l'ukiyo-e un genre d'estampes et de peintures sur bois qui a fleuri pendant la période Edo. Des artistes comme Kitagawa Utamaro ou Suzuki Harunobu étaient réputés pour leurs représentations similaires de femmes en tenue élégante. La feuille peinte mesure 70 cm x 24 cm. La plus grande feuille de support et donc l'ensemble de l'œuvre mesure 815 cm x 39 cm. Le shamisen 三味線 également connu sous le nom de sangen 三絃 ou samisen tous signifiant "trois cordes" est un instrument de musique traditionnel japonais à trois cordes dérivé de l'instrument chinois sanxian. Les geishas étaient souvent d'habiles joueuses de samisen qu'elles utilisaient pour divertir leurs clients. NP hardcover
