Note du spécialiste

Three generations of the Yasumi family were metal artists working in Osaka. All three worked in richly colored purple-red bronze (seido). Ysumi II exhibited widely, beginning with the Shin-Bunten and Hoshukuten exhibitions before World War II and the Nitten exhibitions afterward.
