MWW Artwork of the Day (10/12/24) Zhu Zhanji (Emperor Xuanzong)(Chinese, 1399-1435) Three Yang [Goats], an Auspicious Start (to the New Year)(1429) Hanging scroll, ink & colors on paper, 211.6 x 142.5 cm. National Palace Museum, Taipei

In this ink painting with light colors from the fourth year of Xuanzong's reign (1429) are a ewe and two lambs with a background of bamboo, rocks, and camellias. The subject of three goats is a homophone for "Three Yang, an Auspicious Start to the New Year." This title comes from the Book of Changes, which consists of 64 hexagram (six-line) combinations of trigrams (three-line symbols). The eleventh hexagram translates literally as "Earth (and) Heavens (at) Peace" and is represented by the symbol. With the three lines of qian (yang) below and three of kun (yin) above unified and harmoniously connected, it symbolizes peace throughout the heavens and earth.

掛け軸は、日本伝統の美術工芸品の一つで、絵画や書などを長方形の布や紙に描き、巻物のように巻いて収納できるようにしたものです。一般的に、木製の軸に巻いて飾ることから「掛け軸」と呼ばれています。 掛け軸は、その用途によって様々な種類があります。仏画や尊像を描いたものは仏事や法要などで使われ、書や日本画などは季節や祝い事などに合わせて飾られます。また、掛け軸は部屋の装飾品としても使われ、部屋の雰囲気や季節感を演出する役割も果たしています。 掛け軸は、その制作に様々な技術や工夫が凝らされています。絵画や書を描くだけでなく、絵や文字を囲む装飾的な枠線や、絵の余白を埋める余白絵（よはえ）、絵や書を引き立てるような模様や色合いの布や紙の選択など、総合芸術的な要素も持っています。

So, as I understand it, traditionally if a kimono’s obi in the front, that symbolized that the wearer was a sex worker (why tie it back up if you just were going to take it off again soon?) which causes me to ask a few questions about the hanging scroll.

MWW Artwork of the Day (7/9/22) Attributed to Katsushika Hokusai (Japanese, 1760–1849) Gamecocks (1838) Hanging scroll; ink and color on silk, 54.9 x 84.8 cm. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (Charles Stewart Smith Collection)

The bantam cock on the right aggressively faces off with his companion to the left as it eyes us, the viewers, as if to ask whether it should engage in battle. In the trademark fashion of Hokusai animal paintings, the expressions of the birds convey humanlike emotions. Their plumage is meticulously rendered, suggesting a deluxe commission. From ancient times in Japan, gamecocks (Japanese: shamo) were specifically bred as fighting birds.
