NihontoWatchNihontoWatchNihon Bijutsu Token Hozon Kyokai "Tokubetsu Hozon Tosogu" kanteisho included Ayanokoji Nagamine. A kinkoshi of the middle Edo period, commonly known as Jirosa. The horikuchi is based on the hori techniques of Mino Goto, and the highlight is the thick kin-iroe finish on the ko-beri of the fuchi of the fuchigashira. This work features a hawk perched on a rocky crag, masterfully executed in takabori on a dense shakudo nanako-ji. The hawk's expression, full of a sense of movement, is wonderful, and the imposing branches of the rocks and pines reveal the high level of his skill. Important points are carved with a rich sense of mass and colored with kin-iroe, creating a fuchigashira with powerful and gorgeous contrast, and the thick fuchi with kin-iroe is his specialty.
