拍品描述
A HIGHLY UNUSUAL WOOD NETSUKE OF A SHAPESHIFTER

Unsigned
Japan, late 19th to early 20th century, Meiji period (1868-1912)

Powerfully carved as a malevolent being in a treacherous disguise, appearing as a ronin wearing a short robe, holding a sheathed katana in his left hand and a headscarf in his right, his demonic form betrayed only by his three-clawed feet and the vengeful expression. The robe opening at the chest to reveal an emaciated rib cage and decorated with a neatly incised hem and a lozenge symbol at the back. His face with thick furrowed brows, intense eyes, a broad nose, and buck teeth. The back with large asymmetrical himotoshi.

HEIGHT 7.8 cm

Condition: Excellent condition with minor wear.

Auction comparison:
The style of the carving is somewhat reminiscent of Kokeisai Sansho (1871-1936) of Osaka. For a mask netsuke of a ghoul by Sansho, compare particularly the facial features to the present carving, see Zacke, Fine Netsuke & Sagemono, 28 April 2023, Vienna, lot 244.



13% VAT will be added to the hammer price additional to the buyer’s premium – only for buyers within the EU.
