EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century Okimono, or Japanese decorative object in the form of a small cockerel, showcases the exquisite craftsmanship and artistic detail of the Hirado Ware tradition. The cockerel, a symbol of vigilance and good fortune in Japanese culture, is depicted with its head turned away, as if in contemplation or in the midst of preening its vibrant, white tail feathers. The intricately modeled form of the bird is accentuated by the porcelain's smooth, white glaze, which highlights the subtle texture of the ceramic. Originating from the island of Hirado in Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan, Hirado Ware is renowned for its high-quality porcelain and intricate decorative arts. This Okimono exemplifies the tradition's mastery of form and detail, as well as its ability to capture the essence of the natural world. The cockerel's beady eyes, wattle, and comb are rendered with remarkable precision, while its feathers are delicately modeled to create a sense of movement and life. The bird's stance is steady and confident, adding to its overall allure and charm. This work of art, now a cherished piece in the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), serves as a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Japan and the enduring appeal of its decorative arts. The close-up perspective of this studio shot allows viewers to fully appreciate the intricacies of the Okimono, from the delicate feathering to the subtle nuances of the porcelain's glaze.
