PREVIOUSLY IN THE COLLECTION OF IMAI TAKUDO
Imai Takudo (1858 - 1918), original name Imai Magoichi, whose family was the great household in the Echigo (now Niigata prefecture) from the late 17th century, was a great entrepreneur who established Imai Bank in 1900. He was well-respected for his contribution to the modernization of the finance, marine businesses and on social work affairs. In 1903 he founded Yoshida Hospital by his own effort.
Mr Imai studied under Tomioka Tessai (1837-1924), painter and an influential scholar of Chinese classics, and received the pen name Takudo. Tessai stayed in the Imai's house and assisted to build the collection of Chinese classical paintings and calligraphy. The lots here were entrusted to the Tokyo National Museum under their care and storage from the 1970s until they are offered to the present auction.
