拍品描述
GENRYUSAI SEIYA: A FINE BRONZE AND ROOTWOOD OKIMONO OF A KESTREL ON A TREE STUMP

Japan, Meiji period (1868-1912)

Superbly cast, this raptor is perched on a separately carved wood base in the shape of a tall tree stump. The bird is detailed with intricately incised plumage, its wings spread as the kestrel prepares to take flight. The eyes, inlaid in shakudo with gilt rings, are striking, while the elegantly curved beak adds to the bird's lifelike presence. The underside is signed within a square reserve SEIYA chu [cast by Genryusai Seiya].

HEIGHT (total) 39 cm
WEIGHT (total) 5 kg

Condition: Good condition with old wear. The legs are re-enforced, now firmly mounted to the base. Two losses to the edges of the wings.

Genryusai Seiya was a master craftsman known for leading a workshop that specialized in high-quality export wares. His production included human genre figures, vases, and exotic animal bronzes, likely influenced by the opening of the Tokyo Zoological Gardens in 1882. This piece is a brilliant example of Seiya's expertise in creating naturalistic bronze models of animals.
