IKKOSAI: A FINE IVORY NETSUKE OF SUSANO-O NO MIKOTO SLAYING THE DRAGON By Ikkosai, signed Ikkosai Japan, Edo, mid-19th century, Edo period (1615-1868) Depicting Susano-o no Mikoto with a fierce expression, biting down on his lip, grabbing a dragon by his horns and plunging his sword down the beast’s throat. The hair of the hero is finely incised and inked. The flames and mouth of the dragon, and Susano-o’s lip shows some red pigment - this and the manner of the dragon are very typical for Ikkosai Saito Itaro, though the present piece is most likely by a talented pupil, as the signature is incised in a peculiar manner. Himotoshi through the reverse, above the signature IKKOSAI 一光齋. HEIGHT 4.3 cm Condition: Very good condition with age cracks. Provenance: European collection, formerly offered at Van Ham (estimate 3.500 EUR), Asiatische Kunst, 7 December 2012, Cologne, lot 2292.
