? HOSHINSAI: A FINE EDO SCHOOL WOOD NETSUKE OF OMORI HIKOSHICHI ENCOUNTERING A DEMON
By Hoshinsai, signed Hoshinsai 法眞齋
Japan, Edo (Tokyo), late 18th to early 19th century, Edo period (1615-1868)

A finely carved and powerfully executed wood netsuke, displaying a superb aji (patina). The hero Omori Hikoshichi is shown drawing his sword and looking back at the Hannya-faced demon which he carries on his back, the demon pulling a grimace and holding a loose strand of hair in her hand. According to legend, he thought he was carrying a beautiful lady across a stream, but in the ripples of the moonlight reflected on the water he discovered her true demonic form. Large himotoshi to the back and signed HOSHINSAI – a rarely encountered Edo school artist working in the style of Gessho.

HEIGHT 4.9 cm

Condition: Very good condition with typical and attractive wear. A small repair to one foot.
