專家說明

This deluxe writing box depicting the Queen Mother of the West (Seiobo) and her attendants on top, is thought to be dated from late 17th- early 18th century. Once owned by the son of fifth Tokugawa shogun, Tokumatsu, this box was likely commissioned by Tokugawa family for a special occasion. According to the inscription on the box, this box was given to the chief priest of the Kobuin temple in Nara by Zuishun’in, the concubine of the fifth Tokugawa shogun as a gift. The Konbuin temple is known for the collection of thirty one fukusa (silk wrapping cloth) given by Zuishun’in in 1713.
