KAWANABE KYOSAI. Sketches of Birds and Animals

Sketches of Birds and Animals. Artist: Kawanabe Kyosai (Japanese, 1831-1889). Culture: Japan. Dimensions: 17 ft 3 1/2 in. x 10 3/4 in. (516.9 x 27.3 cm). Date: late 19th century, before 1870.
After training in the academic Kano school tradition, Kyosai became an independent painter in Edo (today's Tokyo) during the final years of the Tokugawa shogunate. A prolific painter and teacher, he became well known outside Japan through his prominence at the international expositions in Vienna in 1873 and Paris in 1883. These charming, quickly rendered sketches were probably done as models for his students. They reveal the animated brushwork and sure command of form through line that characterize his painting.
