Item Details
Description
Japanese Vase by Makuzu Kozan I, Herons on Stoneware is from the studio of the ceramic artist Makuzu Kozan I (Japanese 1842-1916) who was widely recognized during his lifetime for his artistry and accomplishments. His work is included in the collection of the Tokyo National Museum. In the 1860s he worked in kilns near Bizen where he became familiar with stoneware clay and firing techniques. In the following decade he also worked with Satsuma ware. This vase, finely potted from stoneware clay and decorated with white moriage and iron brown glaze, combines qualities from these two artistic traditions. The surface is primarily unglazed, contrasting with the finely detailed cranes that are rendered in white Satsuma glaze. Iron brown glaze is brushed on the side of the pot, and encircles the base. The interior is also brushed with the iron glaze. The base bears the impression of Makuzu Kozan's double gourd stamped seal. The wooden tomobako is inscribed on the lid: Ko-Seto yu murusagi-e (old Seto glaze/group of herons) and signed Makuzu kozan saku (made by Makuzo Kozan). Exhibited Provenance: Perry Foundation. Exhibited: "Bridging East and West, Japanese Ceramics from The Kozan Studio," Baltimore, Walters Art Gallery, December 1994-April 1995, traveling to the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, England, 1996. Provenance: Sanai Fine Art and Antiques

Dimensions: H. 6 " W. 8 "
