A pale glazed deep Tsutsu-gata chawan tea bowl by the first generation Kuze Kyuho decorated with dried lotus leaves by famed painter Hirai Baisen enclosed in the original wooden box signed by both artists. It is 11.5 cm (4-1/2 inches) diameter, 10.5 cm (roughly 4 inches) tall and in excellent condition.
Hirai Baisen graduated the Kyoto Municipal School of Fine Arts and was a regular exhibitor with the Bunten from 1907-1931. Having worked in any number of styles, he was a true Jiyu-gakka who excelled in the early years of his career. However he did slowly withdraw from the competitive world of Japanese art beginning in the war years. His works are held by the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and a plethora of important public and private collections.
