Chinese Servant Walking in the Rain, Gakuō Zōkyū, 1500s, Cleveland Museum of Art: Japanese Art

Attributed to the artist Gakuō, this painting has a spurious seal of the influential Shōkokuji temple monk-painter Tenshō Shūbun (died about 1444–50), with whom he is said to have trained. Gakuō may have hailed from Ise in present-day Wakayama prefecture, an area south of Kyoto in the Kansai region. Although not much is known about his life, inscriptions on some of his paintings indicate strong ties with eminent monks in Kyoto’s major Zen temples. Size: Mounted: 131.8 x 44.2 cm (51 7/8 x 17 3/8 in.) Medium: hanging scroll; ink on paper

A depiction of Sōgi (宗祇) (1421–1502), a travelling Zen monk and poet based at Kyoto’s Shōkokuji Temple (相国寺) renowned especially as a master of linked verse, or renga (連歌), which he mentored to some of the leading political & military figures of his day despite his humble family background in either Kii or Ōmi Province

Hanging scroll, ink & color on silk, 16th century, attributed to the artist Kanō Motonobu (狩野元信) (1476-1559)--which is corroborated stylistically by the similarity of the horse with Motonobu’s horse designs on ema (絵馬) votive tablets at his family shrine

There once was an old fox (kitsune) from Shōkokuji in Kyoto. In the autumn, he would disguise himself as famous tea master Sen Sōtan & visit local tea masters to drink tea & eat cakes. Everyone loved his company even though all knew he was really a fox, & called him Sōtan Kitsune, Anne Louise Avery

From Japanese Art by Joan Stanley-Baker: “In the late fourteenth century, reflecting the secularization among Chan monks in China and Korea where literary accomplishment replaced spiritual quest, a form of poem painting (shigajiku) evolved; in it, landscape painting complements the group of poems composed during a gathering of literary monks. It had been largely the product of monastic literary associations until a Shōgun, probably Yoshimitsu, specifically ordered such a work to be produced as a backdrop screen for his dais. He asked distinguished monks from Kyoto to compose poems, and commissioned Josetsu (fl. early fifteenth century) of his Shōkokuji monastery to paint in the ‘new style’ (of the Southern Song academician and Chan painter Liang Kai). The theme of the painting was the Zen riddle on catching the slippery catfish with the smooth-skinned gourd. Josetsu’s compelling work is largely monochrome, with a touch of red to accent the gourd. The Liang Kai manner can be seen in the hooked and angular lines of the drapery. The sweep of the bank is remarkable, from the dense confluence of streams on the left to the opening up to grand dissolution on the right (a reversal of the usual narrative flow from right to left). The gentle curves of bank, bamboo, catfish, gourd and flowing water are offset by the bristling intensity of the reeds on the right, and by the extraordinary face of the aspirant. This screen was subsequently remounted in its present hanging scroll format.”

Figure singulière de la période Edo (1603-1867), Jakuchū est connu comme l'un des artistes excentriques ou indépendants de Kyōto, qui n'étaient liés à aucun mouvement artistique en particulier, mais qui créèrent un style tout à fait personnel. Ce fut seulement à l'âge de 40 ans passés qu'il put s'adonner entièrement à la peinture. Cet ensemble de trente rouleaux intitulé Images du royaume coloré des êtres vivants (Dōshoku sai-e) est son œuvre la plus ambitieuse, réalisée sur presque une décennie. Il représente avec ses fleurs, poissons, et oiseaux l'un des exemples les plus remarquables de peinture polychrome japonaise du 18ème siècle. Cet ensemble, appartenant à la collection de l'Agence de la Maison impériale du Japon, en tout point exceptionnel, n'a quitté le Japon qu'une fois, en avril 2012, pour être présenté à la National Gallery de Washington. Il n'est montré qu'à Paris accompagné par la triade buddhique du temple Shôkoku-ji et pour une durée d'un mois en raison de sa fragilité. Itō Jakuchū (伊藤若冲) aussi connu sous le nom de Itō Shunkyō, de son vrai nom Itō Jokin, surnoms: Keiwa, Jakuchû et Tobei-an, né vers 1716 à Kyōto, mort en 1800 est un peintre japonais d'animaux et de fleurs.
