"An Ivory Netsuke Depicting Roshi Seated On The Back Of A Buffalo"

A finely carved ivory netsuke depicting Roshi seated on the back of a buffalo.
The animal, its muzzle held by a rope, is shown with its head lowered as it carries the master.

Roshi wears a wide robe with flowing sleeves, his hair tied up and his long flowing beard framing his serene face.

The ivory has developed a yellowish patina that enhances the volumes and contrasts of the carving. Himotoshi on the back and under the buffalo.
