專家說明

The artist of the first, Hagiya Katsuhira (1804-1886), was born in Mito. Among his students were Unno Shomin (1844-1915) and Kano Natsuo (1828-1898). The latter part of his career saw many foreigners visiting Japan and Katsuhira's work appealed to Victorian taste. For this reason there are many fine examples of Katsuhira's work in Europe and America.
For an example by Kogyokusai Kazuhisa, the artist of the second, see Oliver Impey and Malcolm Fairley eds., Meiji no Takara: Treasures of Imperial Japan, The Nasser D. Khalili Collection of Japanese Art, Metalwork Part I, (London, 1995), cat. no. 63.
