{"product_id":"korin-hyakuzu-sakai-hoitsu","title":"Kōrin Hyakuzu - Sakai Hōitsu","description":"\u003cp\u003eA page from the Kōrin Hyakuzu, a woodblock print collection by Sakai Hōitsu documenting the works of Ogata Kōrin, featuring various traditional motifs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis woodblock print originates from the Kōrin Hyakuzu, a collection compiled by the artist Sakai Hōitsu to document the works of Ogata Kōrin. Hōitsu, a central figure in the Edo period Rinpa school, dedicated much of his career to the study and preservation of Kōrin's aesthetic. This specific page displays a series of distinct motifs, including a tiger, a figure with a dog, a dragon, and a seated sage. Each subject is presented within a vertical frame, reflecting the structured layout of traditional Japanese book design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe line work demonstrates the characteristic precision of the woodblock medium, with varying weights used to define the texture of the tiger's fur and the fluid, serpentine form of the dragon. The composition relies on a balance between negative space and the graphic weight of the figures. By compiling these sketches, Hōitsu sought to codify the visual language of his predecessor, ensuring that the stylistic innovations of the earlier Rinpa masters remained accessible to contemporary artists and collectors. The inclusion of small circular seals and calligraphic annotations provides context for each subject, typical of the scholarly approach Hōitsu took toward his archival project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a document of art history, this print offers insight into the transmission of style within the Japanese tradition. It captures the essence of the Rinpa school, which favoured decorative clarity and a refined approach to subject matter. The print is presented on paper that retains the character of the original publication, showing the subtle tonal variations inherent in historical woodblock printing. This piece is suitable for those interested in the history of Japanese graphic arts and the specific methodologies of the Edo period printmakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/sketchbook-of-ike-taiga-taigado-gafu-ikeno-taiga\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eSketchbook of Ike Taiga (Taigado gafu) - Ikeno Taiga — Ike no Taiga\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/sino-japanese-war-the-japanese-navy-victorious-off-takushan-ogata-gekko\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eSino-Japanese War: The Japanese Navy Victorious Off Takushan - Ogata Gekko — Ogata Gekkō\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sakai Hōitsu","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58733855473999,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58734054244687,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58734054277455,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58734054310223,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58734054342991,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58734054375759,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58734054408527,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58734054441295,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58734054474063,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58734054506831,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58734054539599,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58734054572367,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/K-rin-Hyakuzu_Poster_CompositorV1_1789030479333.jpg?v=1789030704","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/korin-hyakuzu-sakai-hoitsu","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
