Takahashi Shotei (Hiroaki)
Two Paintings of "Tama" Cats - Black and Beige
Date: Not known. There was a June 1924 Tama cat woodblock print (see our Shotei061) in which the white cat is in the reverse orientation.
Size (Black Cat): Paper: 15.5 x 11.375 inches (38.9 x 28.9 cm). Image: 13 x 9.25 inches (32.8 x 23.4 cm).
Size (Beige Cat): Paper size: 15.25 x 11.375 inches (38.8 x 28.8 cm). Image: 13 x 9.25 inches (33.1 cm X 23.5 cm).
Medium: Japanese paintings on paper. The painted area appears to be on a printed beige background, from which the beige cat derives its color.
Condition: Each painting has a few paint spots and paper toning.
Notes: For more information, please see the interesting "Tama paintings" discussion at Shotei.com. Only three or four of these painting sets have been found over the years. Our 12th image is a photo in side light. The others are scans.
