Olas encrespadas

Ogata Kōrin Japanese
ca. 1704–9
Not on view
Muchos artistas y poetas han intentado captar la imagen fugaz de las olas embravecidas. En la versión de Ogata Kōrin, unos tentáculos de espuma largos e irregulares, perforados aquí y allá por orificios, se elevan con aire amenazador. Las olas, similares a garras, se han trazado con tinta empleando una antigua técnica china que requiere sostener dos pinceles en una sola mano. Su antecedente tal vez sea una imagen del artista del periodo Muromachi Sesson Shūkei (ca. 1504–ca. 1589). El biombo ostenta un sello donde se lee Dōsū, nombre adoptado por Kōrin en 1704.
