HARUMI SHIBUKAWA (1639-1716)
Tenmon Bun'ya no zu. [Map showing divisions of the heavens and regions they govern]. Japan: 1677. Woodcut circular star map, in Japanese, on native paper (1,040 x 550mm). The star map surmounted by title, with elaborate texts set out below, recording observations and various lunar lodges. (Some old worm holes or tracks carefully restored, the map laid down on paper, light staining). Modern silk borders, on wooden roller and mounted in a wooden box.
A RARE AND IMPORTANT JAPANESE STAR MAP, compiled from Shibukawa's own systematic star observations, the map combining a new star map with concepts from Chinese field-allocation astrology. In China the twelve Jupiter stations were correlated with the twelve ancient States of China, and used to interpret celestial omens. Shibukawa applied this field allocation concept to the regions of Japan, allowing scholars to interpret stellar activity and predict events in various regions of the country. Shibukawa, son of Yasui Santetsu, was born Yasui Rokuzo changing his name to Santetsu when his father died. In 1702 he changed his name to Shibukawa, a former name of the Yasui family. J.B. Harley
and D. Woodward (eds), The History of Cartography, vol. II, part ii, Chicago and London: 1994, pp.586-590.
