| Notes (this edition) These notes were written by the original owner/seller/auctioner of the item and may be inaccurate.: | Monday, 4 July 2005 Rice Planting (Variant 2) by Ohno Bafuku Rice Planting is a wonderfully detailed glimpse of peasant agricultural life. You can tell it is not modern farming by the grass rain-gear that the person driving the water buffalo is wearing. There are tiny baby rice plants in the paddy and in the trays on the cart. Two herons are standing in a paddy of maturing rice plants, and another is flying over the centeral paddy. The fields and paddys are beautifully shaded. Rain falls in light streaks. You will note that there are no black keybock lines. Their absence gives the feel of a watercolor to the print. This watercolor feel is intensified by the delicate, freehand look of the rice plants, the elegant sweep of the willow branches, and the smudged look to the leaves of the background trees. This is one of Ohno's best landscapes. Ohno Bafuku was born in Tokyo and moved to Kansai. He was an honorary member of the Hyogo Prefecture Academy of Fine Arts, and a member of Taiheiyogakai. He is particularly noted for his kacho-e prints, but he did a number of fine landscapes as well.

Merritt and N. Yamada. Prints by Ohno never carried title text, and as a result the woodblock print community (including both collectors as well as galleries) has often applied 'unofficial' titles to prints in a haphazard way. This print is of Rice Fields. MARKS: PRINTED BY KOYOTO-HANGA-IN1950.Sealed and signed in right corner, other marks in the left side margin. SIZE: TOTAL : 15"x 10-1/2"..IMAGE size: 14" X 9-1/2". CONDITION: the print is in excellent undamaged condition, very slight toning of paper, no tears or stains. It has not been glued down, it has been attatched to the board with plastic holders which were part of the much later framing given the print. |
