Descripción

[36 Poems by 36 Haikai Poets]. N.p. C. 1900-1920. 30.4 x 26.5cm volume string-bound Japanese-style, fukuro-toji with olive green brocade covers. The blank title slip is mounted on the top left of the front cover. The inner wrappers are covered in gold-flecked paper and the free endpapers appear to be laid paper. [18] cho with an image of a poet and a poem in Japanese calligraphy on each page for a total of [36] pages. The images are in black with a light wash of peach, green and gray on heavy Japanese paper with a poem and poet's name in sumi ink. Each one has the same red hanko by the artist, likely KashÅ é æ µ. KashÅ was one of the pen names of the established calligrapher and painter Ike no Taiga æ±å¤§é … (1723 - 1776) and this could be an ode to his work. The poet depicted on the final page appears to be the haiku poet Hattori TohÅ æ é å è (1657-1730), a protege of legendary haiku poet BashÅ æ ¾å°¾è è (1644-94). A delightful rendition of the theme of "36 poems by 36 poets," done with a whimsical feel. Likely about 1900-1920 by a skilled amateur. Slight wear to covers, string is snapped at top.
