Dear Gents,

 

looking for reference examples of Menuki(pictures of) made by Yujo Masaoku(1440-1512)(Ko-Goto)

According to Sasano(Tosogu No Kigen,page 203)

Anybody here who could provide me with such?

Hi Christian,

 

I cam across this article which is part 1 of 2 on Rich T. Kodogu no Sekai: http://kodogunosekai.com/2006/12/19/the-goto-shirobei-family-by-mosle/ Second part was on the blog on Jan. 2007 a month later. It might have some helpful information. Its also have some nice Ko-Goto menuki examples. Hope you find this helpful in your study.

 

 

 

Yours truly,

David Stiles

Dear David,

Need closer view of this very working-style,handwork...

Hi Christian, there are plenty of books on Goto out there you can buy.GOTO-KE JUSHICHIDAI NO TOSOGU is particularly good and you can get one of Yahoo Japan for about $50

 

I do not put my books in the scanner sorry so I can't help you there.
