專家說明

The netsuke carver Masakatsu was the son of Masanao I and examples of his work are rare due to a small output because of ill health. His work is considered to be very fine, working almost entirely in boxwood and is particularly recognised for his rendering of reptiles. For a very similar model in ivory by Masakatsu see Eskenazi, Japanese Netsuke from the Carré Collection, (London, 1993), no. 169, p. 139
