KOSEI: A FINE TOKYO SCHOOL IVORY OKIMONO OF A HUNTER HOLDING A HAREBy Kosei, signed Kosei and kakihanJapan, Tokyo, Meiji period (1868-1912)Naturalistically carved, the elderly hunter proudly holding a rabbit by the ears which hangs tensely with its legs drawn up. A matchlock rifle (tanegashima) carved with a long barrel and thick stock is visible behind, slung over the hunter's back and resting in a woven holster. The hunter clothed in thick robes with his powder bag suspended from his belt with a reishi-head netsuke. Signed to the base KOSEI and with the artist's kakihan utilizing the natural nerve channel plug.HEIGHT 27.2 cmCondition: Good condition with minor wear, natural age cracks, the rifle end restored. Provenance: From a private collection in Belgium, published in the commissioned private catalogue 'The Nibajama collection' no. 48.Tanegashima, most often called hinawaju ('matchlock gun') in Japanese and sometimes in English, was a type of matchlock-configured arquebus firearm introduced to Japan through the Portuguese Empire in 1543. Tanegashima were used by the samurai class and their ashigaru 'foot soldiers', and within a few years, the introduction of the tanegashima in battle changed the way war was fought in Japan forever. After Tokugawa Ieyasu destroyed the Toyotomi clan in the siege of Osaka and established the Tokugawa shogunate, the relatively peaceful Edo period arrived, and the use of tanegashima declined. Isolation did not eliminate the production of guns in Japan—on the contrary, there is evidence of around 200 gunsmiths in Japan by the end of the Edo period. However, the social life of firearms had changed: as the historian David L. Howell has argued, for many in Japanese society, the gun had become less a weapon, but rather a farm implement for scaring off animals. With no external enemies for over 200 years, tanegashima were mainly used by samurai for hunting and target practice, the majority were relegated to the arms store houses of the daimyo.Auction comparison:Compare a closely related Tokyo school ivory okimono of a hunter holding a monkey in a similar pose, signed Kozan, at Bonhams, Fine Japanese Art, 17 May 2012, London, lot 174 (sold for GBP 7,500).Trade Certificate: The trade certificate for the sale of this lot within the EU has been granted (permit number 2022/BE04319/CE).

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).
