Rare Large-Format Suite of 3 Meiji-Era Masterworks by Kawanabe Kyōsai (35cm x 38cm) Description: An exceptional and historically significant matching suite of three (3) oversized Japanese shikishi (art boards) by the legendary Meiji-period artist Kawanabe Kyōsai (1831–1889). These pieces are larger than standard art boards, measuring a prominent 35 cm x 38 cm, providing an expansive canvas for Kyōsai's masterful and rebellious brushwork. The Narrative: The Moral Journey This set forms a cohesive philosophical series, transition from the underworld to spiritual enlightenment: Trial of the Soul: An Oni (demon) warden utilizes a celestial scale to weigh a sinner's intentions. Punishment of the Tongue: A vivid depiction of the Gekkan Jigoku (Hell of Lies), where a dishonest soul’s tongue is extracted—a literal warning against deceit. The Enlightened Path: A serene, final landscape featuring a rising sun and temple, symbolizing the peace found at the end of a virtuous journey. Authentication & Artistic Detail: Artist Signature: Each piece is signed and sealed as "Seisei Kyōsai" (惺々暁斎), a name adopted by the artist after 1871. Medium: Authentic Nikuhitsu-ga (hand-painting). High-resolution analysis reveals variable ink density, hand-layered mineral pigments (malachite and cinnabar), and spontaneous brush tapering typical of Kyōsai's studio. Support: Oversized handmade Washi paper mounted on traditional rigid art boards. Condition: Excellent antique condition. The large format remains stable, showing a natural aged patina and minor "foxing" (age spots) consistent with its late 19th-century origin. The mineral pigments remain strikingly vibrant. Value Impact of the Larger Size Estimated Set Value: ₱150,000 – ₱350,000+ (authenticated as Kyōsai). Reasoning: Large-format original paintings from the Meiji era are rarer than standard sizes and command a higher premium among collectors of Yokai and Ukiyo-e art. The increased scale makes them exceptional "statement pieces" for traditional or gallery displays.
