Description:
This ink and light colour painting on silk depicts Hotei, the Japanese god of contentment and good fortune, striding forward with his cloth sack, budai, his namesake, slung over a staff, prayer beads in hand. The work is signed by Kita Busei 1776–1856, a pupil of the Edo-period master Tani Buncho, and carries two personal seals - a round relief seal reading Ka-an, one of his art names, and a square intaglio seal reading Busei no in, meaning seal of Busei. Busei worked across the Kano, Rinpa, and literati Nanga traditions. Housed in a solid teak frame with an acid-free mat and UV-protective glass. Very good antique condition, with light, even toning to the silk consistent with its age.
