COMPLETE SET OF WOODBLOCK BOOKS 'KYOSAI GADAN'

Item Details

Description

A RARE COMPLETE SET OF WOODBLOCK PRINT BOOKS 'KYOSAI GADAN', MEIJI PERIOD
Japan, 1868-1912. Consisting of four illustrated books, titled 'Kyosai gadan' (Kyosai's account of painting), and organized into 'inner' and 'outer chapters', each consisting of two parts. The books were published in 1887 by Iwamoto Shun, the text is written by Uryu Masayasu, and is accompanied by KyOsai Kawanabe's (1831-1889) own illustrations.

Provenance: Dutch private collection.
Condition: Commensurate with age, woodworm holes, tears, and creasing. The cover also with tears, soiling and material loss.

Dimensions: 24.5 x 17.5 cm

With a blue cloth-clad book cover (5).

Kyosai gadan can be seen as a semi-autobiographical memoir of the artist Kawanabe Kyosai. He dictated the text to his friend Uryu Masayasu (1821-1893), also known as the gesaku author Baitei Kinga and the publisher of this work, Iwamoto Shun. Entries dating to circa 1888 in Kyosai's illustrated diary (e-nikki) mention daily visits by one Iwachu (Iwamoto Shun) to Kyosai's residence, and it shows scenes of Iwachu taking dictation from the artist.

Literature comparison:
Compare another 'Kyosai gadan' book (Vol. 4), at The British Museum, with the accession number 1979,0305,0.390.4.
