A. Richards collection, purchased in Japan, 1914, sold at Sotheby's, London, 1964.Graham Gemmell, London, 1989.Wrangham collection, no.1965.Published: E. A. Wrangham, The Index of Inro Artists, Alnwick, Harehope Publications, 1995, p.246, Shoetsu, Hon'ami.Located to the north of the famous Kinkakuji Temple in Kyoto, the Kagami-ishi (also called the Kagami-iwa) was famed for its remarkable reflective and diagnostic properties. A image similar to that on the present inro is shown in Miyako meisho zue (Illustrations of Famous Places in the Capital), published in 1780. According to the picture caption, 'The Kagami-ishi is a rock that clearly reflects anything placed in front of it . . . It is large with a bright surface and often reflects a person's internal organs; if there is anything wrong it will show up clearly.' (1) Both Henri L. Joly and, later, V. F. Weber refer to a celebrated painting of this subject by Yamaguchi Soken (1759-1818). The present whereabouts of this work are unknown but it is almost certainly the one published in Nihon bijutsu gaho in 1899; Weber also reproduces a suzuribako (writing box) with the same design. (2)Notes:1. For the Miyako meisho zue, see Takemura Toshinori (ed.), Nihon meisho fuzoku zue (Traditional Topographical Works of Japan), Tokyo, 1981, vol. 8, pp.195-6.
