拍品专文

The Orange catalogue describes this as "a very bright and handsome piece, and made in Kyoto by the famous artist Shiomi", but in fact the Shiomi family left Kyoto around the time of the death of the founder, Shiomi Masanari (1647-1722) and worked in Edo until the present century; this example probably dates from the second half of the 19th century.
