A lush portrait introducing one of the most important Japanese
artists of the Edo period Best known for his paintings Irises and
Red and White Plum Blossoms, Ogata Korin (1658-1716) was a highly
successful artist who worked in many genres and media-including
hanging scrolls, screen paintings, fan paintings, lacquer,
textiles, and ceramics. Combining archival research, social
history, and visual analysis, Frank Feltens situates Korin within
the broader art culture of early modern Japan. He shows how
financial pressures, client preferences, and the impulse toward
personal branding in a competitive field shaped Korin's approach to
art-making throughout his career. Feltens also offers a keen visual
reading of the artist's work, highlighting the ways Korin's
artistic innovations succeeded across media, such as his
introduction of painterly techniques into lacquer design and his
creation of ceramics that mimicked the appearance of ink paintings.
This book, the first major study of Korin in English, provides an
intimate and thought-provoking portrait of one of Japan's most
significant artists.
