Description

This artwork was painted by Miyake Wakō, a Japanese-style painter. Yellow chrysanthemums that grow straight vertically are painted skillfully. This painting shows that he had mastered traditional painting methods of Oriental painting. It can be seen in the flowers painted with the *kōroku technique and the leaves painted with the *mokkotsu technique. Various kinds of emotions are aroused from the Japanese tit staring at something painted at the top of the screen and it is similar to the Shijō school. It is also excellent that sumi ink is lightly put on the background of the leaves and plants at the bottom, which makes appreciators feel that there are many plants around the yellow chrysanthemum. His high painting ability is demonstrated here and there in this artwork.


Kōroku: One of the Oriental drawing techniques, contour method. Outlining with fine lines and then color the inside. Used in flowers & birds paintings. Along with the mokkotsu technique, this is one of the two major drawing techniques.
Mokkotsu: A technique where the object is expressed by the shading of sumi ink or color rather than by using outlines (koppō.) It is widely known as a technique for kachō-ga (paintings of flowers and birds).

Our Feelings For Kakejiku


 The Japanese people have long set a high value on aesthetic senses since ancient times. As a result, the
peculiar culture which is not seen in other countries blossomed and many aspects of the modern Japanese
culture come from it. Parts of Japanese culture has been introduced to people in other countries recently,
so the number of people from other countries who are interested in Japanese culture has been increasing.
However, the Japanese aesthetic senses, which are the bases of Japanese culture, have been nurtured
through a long history, intertwining various elements intricately, such as climate, geographical features,
religion, customs and so on. Therefore, they are very difficult to understand not only for people from other
countries, but even for the Japanese people. I think the best tool which conveys these difficult senses
understandably is a “kakejiku.”
 The kakejiku (a hanging scroll; a work of calligraphy or a painting which is mounted and hung in an
alcove or on a wall) is a traditional Japanese art. It's no exaggeration to say that paintings are what
express aesthetic senses at all times and places. The kakejiku is an art which expresses the Japanese
aesthetic senses. The kakejiku has long been used in traditional Japanese events, daily life and so on since
ancient times. As a result, there are various customs of kakejiku in Japan; kakejiku and the life of the
Japanese are closely related. We can see Japanese values through kakejiku.
 The kakejiku is a cultural tradition which the Japanese people should be proud of. However, many people
in other countries don't know much about it because it hasn't been showcased as much. This is why I
decided to try to introduce it. The kakejiku world is very interesting and beautiful. We want not only the
Japanese, but also many people from other countries to know and enjoy it. I hope that many people will
love kakejiku someday.
