Viper6924 Posted September 25, 2012 Report Posted September 25, 2012 Hi! A friend who is into ceramics asked me to help him with a translation of text for a bowl. I guess EDO-period :lol: Thanks! Jan Quote
k morita Posted September 25, 2012 Report Posted September 25, 2012 #1 pic: NINSEI (Name of the artist). Nickname(of the ceramics item), "Matsukaze/Shofu"( the wind through pine trees). #2 pic: Attributed to Ii Naosuke's articles of the deceased. Do you know Ninsei,he is a bigest name. :lol: Quote
Viper6924 Posted September 25, 2012 Author Report Posted September 25, 2012 Thank You very much Morita-san. Well, Ninsei being one of "the three great masters" (I Googled) I think I will tell my friend that this is a "gimei" I´m more into Japanese hitory, so the attribution to Ii Naosuke is more intresting. But I guess the chance of that being true is slim to none. I think I recall an earlier thread on this board reagarding a teppo attributed to Ii Naosuke. Apparantly his things fell out of appreciation after the purge. The text looks old, EDO Perhaps the box is genuin and the content is, well a gimei? If true I can ask him to buy it and I will nick the box... Thanks again! Jan Quote
