About the Item

Ogata Tomin (1839 -1895) Birds in a spring landscape Ink and colour on silk. Inscription reads: “Copy of Lu Ji, painted with heartfelt appreciation” “Painted by Tomin Ogata Yosei” Seal: Yosei Dimensions: H. 45” x 22” (114 cm x 55 cm) This is an important example of a Japanese artist directly copying a painting by the Chinese master Lu Ji. The original Lu Ji painting (see images) is part of the famed Kuroda family treasures. The Kuroda family was a powerful samurai clan based in Fukuoka, Kyushu. The artist, OgataTomin would have been able to access this painting through his position in the Ogata school. Ogata school artists were in official service to the Fukuoka Domain and Ogata Tomin was the 9th hereditary head of that school. Ogata artists were also closely affiliated with the high-ranking Surugadai branch of the Kano school. Lu Ji’s bird-and-flower paintings graced not only the imperial courts of China, but also the halls of the feudal lords of Japan, where they exercised an important influence on the development of the Kano school of painting. Despite Lu Ji’s significant influence on Japanese painting, there are few such direct transmissions of his paintings, and this is a rare historical record of their appreciation in Japan. Ogata Tomin (1839 -1895) is the first son of the painter Ogata Tanko. His given name was Moritsune and he originally studied under his grandfather Ogata Tosho. His grandfather took him to Edo (modern Tokyo) where he studied at the Surugadai Kano school. In 1866 he became the 9th generational head of the Ogata school, although the Meiji restoration of 1867 brought about the dissolution of the school soon thereafter. Lu Jì (c. 1429–c. 1505) was a court academy painter of China of the early Ming dynasty (1368–1644). The painting is presently unmounted. It has been restored and prepared for mounting into a Western style frame.
