聚珍画帖 3巻 [1]

狩野探幽画, 石川大浪摸写 · 1802 · 40 pictures

A Japanese picture book (ehon) in three volumes, copied by Ishikawa Tairō from drawings by Kano Tan'yū and published in 1802. The four pictures show ink-brush figures and plants on pale paper, with calligraphic inscriptions and seal marks. A designer could take the economical brushwork, the pale ground and the spare placement of figures against rocks, waves and pine branches.
