Kanō Tan'Yū (1602 – 1674)
Entdecken Sie die Kunst von Kanō Tan'yū (1602-1674), einem führenden Maler der Kanō-Schule der Tokugawa-Zeit. Erforschen Sie seine Schloss-Aufträge, Momoyama-Schirme mit Tigern sowie einflussreiche Tuschemalereien.
In this large vertical composition, Tan"yū depicted the famous Northern Song calligrapher Mi Fu (1051–1107) writing a poem on a rock surface at a celebrated literati party known as the Elegant Gathering at the Western Garden. This panel also bears Tan"yū"s title, mention of his age (sixty-five), and a painted seal reading Seimei. Most of Tan"yū"s shukuzu lack the fully realized signatures seen on this panel and its companion. These drawings may have been made not as shukuzu but rather as preliminary drawings for paintings.
