Another good point is that it can be rolled up and stored compactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hanging scroll is a collaborative work by three master artists who were active in Kyoto from the late 18th to the early 19th century, each contributing one of the three carp depicted.　The three masters are: Ganku 岸駒 (1756-1839), famed for his dynamic tiger paintings; Shibata Gitou 柴田義董 (1780-1819), a genius of figure painting; and Okamoto Toyohiko 岡本豊彦 (1773-1845), a master of landscape painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShibata and Okamoto both belonged to the Shijo School (Shijo-ha), shared the same teacher, and maintained a close association. For this reason, it is believed the piece originally featured two interacting carp drawn by them. The Shijo School is celebrated for its expressive and elegant style. However, Ganku, known for his self-assured demeanor and even more graceful painting style, made a bold addition: he utilized the negative space to paint a plump, powerfully leaping carp. This act—adding a dynamic, almost humorous element to the quiet, emotional work of the Shijo masters—is a feat that only an artist of Ganku's confidence could achieve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis scroll stands as a rare and unusual masterpiece, showcasing the unique interplay of \"motion and stillness\" across different artistic schools and temperaments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e□ Size:  H 68.5in × W 20.5in（about H174cm×W52cm ）\u003cbr\u003e□ Weight : 10.9oz (309g)\u003cbr\u003e□ Material : silk, paper, wood\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003econdition...\u003cbr\u003eIt's in a good condition\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wabisabi Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51482436731012,"sku":"23865","price":423.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0571\/6593\/8820\/files\/23865hangingscroll01.jpg?v=1768973664","url":"https:\/\/wabisabiantiques.com\/products\/fujiyama-japanese-antique-ink-wash-painting-hanging-scroll-kakejiku-%e5%b2%b8%e6%b5%aa%e6%9f%b3%e6%b8%93-1855-1935-signed-boxed-77in-195-5cm-%e3%82%b3%e3%83%94%e3%83%bc","provider":"Wabisabi Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
