EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sparrows and Bamboo" takes us back to the mid- to late 1500s in Japan. Created by the talented Shiken Seid, also known as Zean, this artwork showcases his mastery of Zen-inspired landscapes and bird-and-flower compositions. Shiken Seido was not only a skilled painter but also a Zen monk who trained at Kyoto's Shokokuji temple. His expertise extended beyond painting, as he even designed the garden of Reiun at Myoshinji temple. In this particular piece, he pays homage to Soami, an influential painter and art advisor to the shogun who passed away in 1525. The gentle composition features two sparrows gracefully perched on bamboo branches. It exudes tranquility and harmony, capturing a serene moment in nature. Accompanying this delicate artwork is a poetic inscription by Ekkei Reikaku, another esteemed monk from that era. Rendered with ink on paper using traditional techniques of the Muromachi period, this hanging scroll exemplifies Japanese heritage art at its finest. Preserved within The Cleveland Museum of Art's collection, it serves as a testament to Shiken Seid's artistic prowess and his contribution to Japanese culture during that time. Heritage Images presents this remarkable print for all art enthusiasts seeking glimpses into Japan's rich artistic legacy from centuries past.
