Your art history post for today: Detail, “Peacocks and Cherry Blossoms,” c. 1925, by Imazu Tatsuyuki (Japanese, active early 20th century), two-panel folding screen; ink, color, gold, and silver on paper, 80 1/8 × 72 13/16 in. (203.5 × 185 cm), The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. #arthistory #japanart #japaneseart
From the website: ‘Against the brilliantly rendered background of a cherry tree in full bloom, a peacock is perched upon a branch with its tail feathers gloriously arrayed while the peahen with subdued plumage looks upwards towards her flamboyant companion. The nearly pristine layers of thickly applied mineral pigments cover the entire surface of this tour-de-force of modern painting. Characteristic of Nihonga (Japanese-style paintings) of the early twentieth century, the work has an overall feeling of flatness and an emphasis on the surface due to the inherent nature of the thick mineral pigments. At the same time the artist creates a sense of volume and simple perspective in the way the tree branches are modeled and in the placement of the rock in front of the river bank where the peahen stands. The cherry blossoms that fill the background also add a physicality to the work as each blossom is painstakingly painted in white and shades of pink.
Peafowls in traditional Japanese art have religious and auspicious symbolism. In Buddhist iconography, they are considered to be guardians from disaster and hardship because they can safely consume poisonous plants, snakes, and insects that would harm humans. They are also symbols of wisdom and said to have the power to steer the faithful away from evil. Peacocks play a prominent role especially in Esoteric Buddhism, as one serves as the vehicle for Kujaku Myōō (Sanskrit: Mahamayuri), or the “peacock king,” one of the Five Wisdom Kings. Because of the multiplicity of “eyes” on the tail feathers, peacocks were also associated with fecundity, a large and healthy family, and wealth in general. All of this traditional symbolism was transferred to modern images of the peacock as a symbol of success and general prosperity. At the time this painting was created, in the 1920s, the peacock was adopted as a trademark of the Mitsukoshi Department Store and symbolized commercial success and a flourishing economy.’

My art history theme for May will be Birds. So today, we have 'Peacock Displaying his Wings' (1983), by Uemura Shoko (1902-2001), The National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto. #arthistory #japan #japaneseart #japanart
He was the eldest son of Uemura Shōen, whose work I posted about yesterday. While her work focused on women, his focused on birds and flowers.

By Hashimoto Okiie (1899-1993), Girl and Irises, 1952, woodblock print. Being a print, it appears in more than one collection. #Art #arthistory #japan #JapanArt #japaneseart #woodblock
Information on the artist from The British Museum: “Hashimoto was born in Tottori Prefecture and graduated in 1924 as an art teacher from the Tokyo School of Fine Arts. He worked as a school-teacher from 1924 until 1955 and produced art in his spare time. After that he retired from teaching and began a full-time career as an artist. As a young man he pursued oil-painting but took up prints in 1936 as a result of attending Hiratsuka Un'ichi's short course in woodblock printing in Tokyo. He remained a close friend of Hiratsuka's from then on and participated in his various activities, such as the Yoyogi-ha group and the wartime print collection 'Kitsutsuki hangashu' (1943). He first exhibited at the Japanese Print Association show in 1937. He contributed to the last Ichimoku-kai collection in 1950 and from that time began to be better known, especially after appearing in Statler's 'Modern Japanese Prints: An Art Reborn' (1956). Much of his work before and after the Pacific War was devoted to Japanese castles and gardens, including the series 'Kojo jukei' ('Ten Views of Old Castles', 1946), but he also produced floral and figure subjects in his later career.”
