[@LinaLouice]

This is a wonder full video! I hope you'd release part 2 as well.

Thank you for your kind comment - I hope to get round to part 2 eventually, but apologies in advance if there's a delay, as I have a bit of a backlog!

I can't find part 2.

[@johnobriensarthistorychannel]

Apologies, part two hasn't been made yet; I hope to do so in the new year.

[@GKP999]

@@johnobriensarthistorychannel Thank you for part 1. And I look forward to part 2. Take care!

Really nice video! I love it Im working on my thesis and I want to know more about Tenshō Shūbun and the View of Edo May I ask you about bibliography?🙏

[@johnobriensarthistorychannel]

Many thanks for the kind comment. Firstly, with the caveat that I don't have any idea of availability, you could try to find Ichimatsu Tanaka's 'Japanese Ink Painting From Shubun to Sesshu', vol. 12 (trans Bruce Darling) in 'Survey of Japanese Art' NY/Tokyo 1972. Also, pp. 127 - 129 of (widely available) Joan Stanley-Baker's 'Japanese Art' 3rd Edition (Thames & Hudson, 2014 London) relates to Shubun, and the preceding and subsequent pages give context. There's also a good bibliography on pp.228 - 231. I'm afraid I haven't read them, but it might be worth trying Helmut Brinker's 'Zen in the Art of Painting' (trans. George Campbell) London 1977, and Helmut Brinker and Hiroshi Kanazawa's 'Zen, Masters of Meditation in Images and Writing (trans. Andreas Leisinger), Zurich, 1993. I don't know if you have access to JSTOR, but the entire 373-page 1996 translation of the Brinker & Kanazawa work is available there. I hope that helps, and good luck with the thesis.

Part 2 give the people what they want

[@johnobriensarthistorychannel]

I completely agree with giving the people what they want, although with PhD deadlines looming and courses to prepare, it just might not be quite when the people want. Sorry to test people's patience, but hopefully soon in the new year I'll have time to finish this one off.

[@coconuciferanuts339]

Musashi's simple sketches brought me here.

[@johnobriensarthistorychannel]

Glad you could come.

Korin is not a Ukiyo-e artist. He is an ink painter. Ukiyoe are prints for the common people, so the price was about 500 yen or 3 dollars per sheet in today's monetary value.
