Square Dish with Landscape and Poem

Kiyomizu Rokubei V Japanese
 Painted by Hashimoto Dokuzan Japanese

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 231

Kiyomizu Rokubei V was trained not only in his family tradition of Kyoto ceramics but also in painting under Kōno Bairei and at the Kyoto Prefectural School of Painting. Rokubei experimented with various ceramic styles. For this dish, he collaborated with Hashimoto Dokuzan, a leading figure in Zen Buddhism and a onetime apprentice to the celebrated literati painter Tomioka Tessai (1836–1924). This Chinese-style vessel represents the taste of the Kyoto literati.
