A Satsuma Bowl With Scenes Of Daily Life And A Noble Procession
A finely crafted Japanese Satsuma ceramic bowl distinguished by its asymmetrical flared rim, one side of which expands outward and is embellished with raised gilt floral motifs.
The richly decorated interior is divided into numerous reserves depicting scenes of everyday life. These include elegantly dressed geisha applying their makeup or attending a daimyō, all set within refined interiors furnished with folding screens, bonsai, and hanging scrolls. The reserves are framed by an intricate ground densely decorated with chrysanthemums and fluttering butterflies.
The rounded exterior wall is encircled by a lively procession featuring numerous figures. At its centre is a palanquin carrying a noblewoman, escorted by attendants bearing standards emblazoned with the mon (family crest) of her clan.
Signed Fujisan beneath the base, with a gilt seal.
Period: Meiji, late 19th century
Dimensions: 16 × 5.5 cm
