SUZUKI KONYU II: A LACQUER SUZURIBAKO DEPICTING A GIBBON REACHING FOR THE REFLECTION OF THE MOON

By Suzuki Konyu II (b. 1945), signed to the tomobako Konyu with seal Suzuki
Japan, Kyoto, second half of 20th century, Showa period (1926-1989)

Of rectangular form with an overhanging cover and silver rims. The exterior bearing a roiro ground, exquisitely decorated to the top of the cover in shades of gold takamaki-e and hiramaki-e with mura-nashiji, e-nashiji, and kirikane to depict a gibbon hanging from a gnarled pine branch growing from a craggy cliff above sinuous waves and a cluster of pine leaves. The ape is reaching to grab the reflection of the moon, subtly lacquered in silver togidashi-e. The interior bearing a roiro ground and fitted with a rectangular inkstone (suzuri) and a metal waterdropper (suiteki) of circular form, further with two writing brushes and an inscribed ink cake.

SIZE 3.1 x 15.2 x 16.8 cm

Condition: Excellent condition with minor wear.

With a wood storage box (tomobako) inscribed to the top of the cover Enko mizu wo sukuu makie, suzuribako (‘Suzuribako box in makie lacquer, with the design of a gibbon scooping water’) and signed to the back of the cover KONYU with seal SUZUKI.

The present suzuribako refers to a Buddhist story in which a monkey attempts to seize the reflection of a moon in a well; it fails when the branch from which it is hanging breaks. The monkey stands for unenlightened people who cannot distinguish between reality and illusion.
