Kamenaga Goro (1890-1955)

The artist specialized in paintings of customs of the Keicho and Kan'ei eras (late 16th and early 17th century). Here, two women in period dress are playing a fan-tossing game.

Goro was a pupil of Kaburagi Kiyokata. This 1926 painting was his first submission to a national juried exhibition and is probably one of his earliest works. He submitted a painting titled Snow to the 10th Teiten exhibition. He also decorated rooms in the Meguro Gajoen, discussed in lot 63.
