suzuki chokichi for kiryu kosho kaisha (1848 – 1919)
Suzuki Chokichi (1848-1919): Japanese bronze artist & Kiryū Kōshō Kaisha craftsman. Known for exquisite vases & decorative pieces, reflecting Meiji era artistry.
The Frick Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh, United States of America)
Experience the grandeur of The Frick Pittsburgh through its iconic collection of masterpieces like Millet’s The Gleaner within the opulent Gilded Age mansion Clayton and discover a legacy of art and industry worth exploring.
Japan was closed to trade with the West until 1854, and it was not until the second half of the 19th century that Japanese decoration became a powerful influence on European and American design. The vases were likely acquired by the Fricks in the 1880s. They are ornamented with flying sparrows and falling Japanese maple leaves on the front and spider webs and insects on the back.
