Description

? A FINE IVORY NETSUKE OF A NAKED MAN TYING HIS FUNDOSHI

Unsigned
Japan, Osaka, early 19th century, Edo period (1615-1868)

Carved from a perfectly smooth and shimmering section of ivory and depicting a naked man tying his fundoshi (loincloth), presumably after a bath, a second delicate cloth draped over his large head. He is visibly delighted; his facial features are carved expressively, and the perfection of the material used conveys his cleanliness very well. One foot is raised, the toes are crisply carved, and the arm which ties the fundoshi in the back forms an arch, which functions as the cord attachment.

HEIGHT 6.5 cm

Condition: Excellent condition.
Provenance: Ex-collection Marcel Lorber (1900-1986). Zacke, Japanische Netsuke, Inro und andere Sagemono - Ausstellung 1986, no. 90. From an Austrian private collection, acquired from the above.

Literature comparison:
Several versions of this model are known, and they were likely carved by an anonymous studio in Osaka working in the late 18th to early 19th century. They all share similar characteristics with particular attention devoted to the humorous expression and staining and polishing of the ivory. For a closely related example signed Garaku see Joe Earle (2001) Netsuke, Fantasy and Reality in Japanese Miniature Sculpture, Boston, MFA Publications, p. 201, no. 164.

Museum comparison:
Compare a closely related ivory netsuke depicting the same subject in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), formerly in the Bushell collection, accession no. 91.250.167.

Auction comparison:
Compare a closely related sperm whale tooth netsuke depicting the same subject at Zacke, Fine Netsuke & Sagemono, 25 September 2020, Vienna, lot 255 (sold for EUR 3,286).
