Katalognummer: JAPNE0619-249 A FINE IVORY NETSUKE OF A MONKEY WITH OCTOPUS BY IKKOSAI By Ikkosai, ivory netsuke Japan, Tokyo, late 19th century A superbly detailed and finely polished ivory netsuke depicting a monkey quarreling with an octopus which is seated on a bell-shaped vessel. The octopus is wear-ing a shirt and is holding a mallet up high menacingly, while the monkey is gripping its tentacles. The netsuke references a legend in which the octopus-physician to Ryujin, the Dragon King of the Sea, prescribes a mon-key’s liver to heal the King’s daughter. The octopus was sent to overpower a monkey and this netsuke shows exactly this scene. Natural himotoshi and the signature IKKOSAI 一光齋 in a polished reserve. The carving shows deep influences from the Osaka master Kaigyokusai Masatsugu, who opened a school in Tokyo which probably had a shared sphere of influence with Ikkosai. HEIGHT 4.3 cm Provenance: British private collection. Condition: The ivory slightly worn in some areas, some age cracks, generally in good condition. Schätzpreis 估價: € 2.000 Startpreis 起拍價: € 1.000 -
