A colorful work by Ueda Manshu (1869-1952) enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Nangokufushu (Taste of a Southern Wind). A boy rides the back of an Ox through a marsh, he happy and dry and the beast happy in the cool water. One can also be reminded of the Zen tales of the Ox-herd, and connotations of enlightenment. Very much in the Taisho style with equal effort on the background as on the fore. The pigment on silk work has been remounted in a gold threaded pale brocade with beige extensions reflecting the original border and retaining the original bone rollers. It measures 71 x 230 cm (28 x 91 inches) and is in fine condition.
Ueda Manshu studied under Imao Keinen and graduated the Kyoto Municipal School of Fine Art. He was exhibited and prized at the Naikoku Kangyo Hakurankai (Meiji period) and later with the Bunten National Exhibition. He was also a prominent figure in the Shotokutaishi-Ten, Jiyugadan-Ten and was prized at the 1904 Saint Louis World Exposition and was featured in other International Exhibitions as well. Works by the artist are held in the Tokyo National Museum of Modern Art (MOMAT) among others as well as decorating the walls and doors of such important temples as Zushun-In, Kyoto
