Beautiful and large okimono in bronze with... - Lot 79 - MJV Soudant
Beautiful and large okimono in bronze with brown patina, representing a roaring tiger, head raised, moving forward while stretching. On its belly, three stamps, including the signature Atsuyoshi saku, a large stamp bearing the mark of the Maruki Company, Maruki shachu seisaku, and the kanji Toku, "Special" Japan, Meiji period, end of 19th-beginning of 20th century. (On a wooden base) Length : 76 cm. Note : Atsuyoshi was a great Japanese bronze master, who worked during the Meiji period (1868-1912) mainly for the Maruki Company, a company based in Tokyo, presenting itself as specializing in "ivory netsuke and metal items". He seems to have been mainly dedicated to the creation of animal subjects, wild and domestic, especially tigers in various positions, but also other animals such as elephants, bears, dogs, as well as female and male figures.
Mooie en grote bronzen okimono met bruine patina, die een brullende tijger voorstelt, zijn kop omhoog, vooruit strekkend. Op de buik drie postzegels, waaronder de handtekening Atsuyoshi saku, een grote postzegel met het merkteken van de Maruki Company, Maruki shachu seisaku, en de kanji Toku, "Special" Japan, Meiji-periode, eind 19e-begin 20e eeuw (Op houten voet) Lengte: 76 cm. Opmerking: Atsuyoshi was a great Japanese craftsman, who during the Meiji-period (1868-1912) worked for the Maruki Company, a company based in Tokio, which he presented as specializing in "ivoren nets and metal articles". Hij lijkt zich vooral te hebben gewijd aan het creëren van dierlijke onderwerpen, wilde en gedomesticeerde, meer in het bijzonder tijgers in verschillende posities, maar ook andere dieren zoals olifanten, beren, honden, evenals vrouwelijke en mannelijke karakters.
