Illustrated is a shikishi by Ningen Kokuho, Kato Kozo of a
delightful Shino tokkuri with a mountain, grasses and plover design. This
tokkuri, rendered in soft washes of ink may have been a representational study
of one of his works or just a quick and spontaneous drawing of a piece from
his mind's eye. Either way, it captures the essential beauty of Momoyama
influenced, modern Shino at its very core.
