YOSHITOMO: AN IVORY MANJU NETSUKE OF OTA DOKANBy Yoshitomo, signed YoshitomoJapan, c. 1860-1880Published: Atchley, Virginia / Davey, Neil (2006) The Virginia Atchley Collection of Japanese Miniature Arts, p. 151, no. N160.Of circular form, the thick manju netsuke finely carved in shishiaibori and painted in sumi, one side depicting the military commander, Ota Dokan, standing and clutching a bow to his side and about to don his jingasa, a quiver strapped to his back, the reverse with a young woman kneeling on the ground and extending him a sprig of yamabuki (yellow wild rose) as she respectfully bows, their garments decorated with foliate motifs. The cord attachment through the eyelet peg housed inside the central himotoshi. Signed to the back YOSHITOMO.DIAMETER 5 cmCondition: Very good condition with minor wear and tiny surface scratches. Beautiful patina.Provenance: Ex Max Hauter collection. Ex-collection Virginia Atchley, California, USA.The story of Ota Dokan is based on a well- known pun. The hero, caught in a sudden heavy rainstorm, stopped at a farmhouse and asked a country girl for a raincoat (mino). She withdrew briefly and returned, offering him a spray of yellow roses (yamabuki) on a fan. Infuriated, Ota Dokan rushed away and only later did he remember the well-known poem and marvelled at the girl's knowledge and subtleness. The poem is of Japanese love and translates, "Though the yamabuki has many petals, I grieve that it has no seed (mino)," implying she had no raincoat to spare.Trade Certificate: The trade certificate for the sale of this lot within the EU has been granted (permit number 22NL305849/20).

Educated at Eton and Trinity College, Cambridge, Charles married his first cousin Marie Amelie Rose Fountaine. After initial successes in the fields of rowing and running whilst at University, he changed direction in the later 1860's, training as a sculptor under the renowned British sculptor John Henry Foley RA (1818-1874) who was a favourite of Queen Victoria's and who made the model for the statue of Albert for the Albert Memorial. Later he trained under the German sculptor Hugo Hagen (1818-1871) before returning to London where he rented a studio in Chelsea. In 1872, he exhibited his work 'Girl at the Stream', the first of twelve exhibited works, at the Royal Academy with later works including 'Daphne' in 1880 and 'The Panther' in 1880. During this period he also won an honourable mention at the Paris Universal Exhibition in 1878. In 1882 he was involved in an infamous libel case with the magazine Vanity Fair concerning the authorship of another sculptor's work and in 1889 he took up competitive cycling. Later in 1901 along side Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, he judged the world's first major bodybuilding competition organised by Eugene Sandow at London's Royal Albert Hall in 1901. In 1906, five years before his death, Laws returned to the field of sculpture, when he executed a bronze group entitled 'The Death of Dirce' based on the Farnese Bull. This work was subsequently realised in more monumental form in marble where it was exhibited at the Franco-British Exhibition in 1908, the same year that as the bronze group was being exhibited at the Royal Academy. The marble is now in the grounds at Rothamsted. After the Law's death, his widow offered the bronze version to the National Gallery of British Art (later the Tate Gallery) where it was installed on an outside entrance where it still stands today.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP For auctions held in Scotland: Lots will be moved to an offsite storage location (Constantine, Constantine House, North Caldeen Road, Coatbridge ML5 4EF, Scotland, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.
