Skaffa en kopia av Daikoku Pounding Mochi

One of the Seven Lucky Gods of Good Fortune, Daikoku is a Japanese folk god of wealth. He was originally introduced to Japan as a member of the Buddhist pantheon, but along with Ebisu, became widely worshipped in the early Edo period as a god of success and happiness, particularly among merchants and urban commoners.Shōhaku has painted Daikoku with his head covered in its usual black cloth and his sleeves rolled up, about to swing his enormous pestle into the rice in the round mortar. He is making mochi, a sticky rice paste prepared as a treat to celebrate the New Year. The spontaneous and brusque brushwork suggests that this work may have been created impromptu, with the artist surrounded by onlookers at a social gathering.

Konstnärsbiografi

life and artistic style

soga shōhaku, a japanese painter from the edo period (1730-1781), defied conventions with his unique brush style, reminiscent of the muromachi period, which was already 150 years out of vogue by the time of his birth. this distinctive approach set him apart from his contemporaries.

notable works and their significance

* race at uji river (harvard art museums, cambridge, united states): this polychromatic screen, depicting a famous episode from the 14th-century war epic "the tale of the heike," showcases shōhaku's pictorial grotesquerie. it is a rare example of his work in full color. * the immortal li tieguai (128 x 28 cm, paper): this piece illustrates the story of one of the eight chinese immortals, li tieguai, and demonstrates shōhaku's ability to convey complex narratives through his art.

artistic influences and legacy

* shōhaku's preference for the muromachi period's brush style reflects an aesthetic that was already passé by the time of his birth. this choice not only distinguishes him from his contemporaries but also highlights his unique artistic vision. * his monstrous depictions of prominent figures were extremely unusual compared to other painters of his time, further solidifying his position as an unconventional artist.
