石川寅治（１８７５年―１９６４年）高知県出身。上村昌訓から西洋画の手ほどきを受けた後上京し、小山正太郎の不同舎で絵画を学び、日本初の洋風美術団体明治美術会に作品を発表。明治美術会の解散後は、太平洋画会結成に参加、主に草花や日本の風景、女性像を清明な写実表現で描き、特に女性の裸体表現は巧みで、華やかな木版画シリーズを残す。また琉球、台湾、中国江南地方を旅行し、現地の情景をスケッチした石川は、その繊細な描写力を活かし、海軍省委嘱の迫力ある戦争画も手掛ける。１９０７年には第１回文展に出品、以後一貫して官展（文展、帝展、新文展、日展）に作品を発表し、後進の指導に尽力。享年８９歳。 作品データ 木版画、紙、版上サインと印、山岸主計刀、漆原栄次郎刷 作品寸法マットサイズ37ｗｘ29ｈ（ｃｍ） 額寸法 58.5ｗｘ48ｈ（ｃｍ） |
