Comments:Folding fans painted and inscribed by artists and poetsThese are taken from a group of twenty-seven fans kept in a special storage box, some dated variously between 1802 and 1841. An inscription on the box suggests that they are from a much larger collection of fans made from about 1821 onwards by one Ogawa Sanzaemon Sotoku, in the town of Tsu (in modern Mie Prefecture). The paintings and calligraphies are by many famous artists, poets and calligraphers and would have constituted an elegant autograph collection for the owner. Perhaps some were acquired by him directly from the artists and poets. (Label copy, TTC 2003)
