    Tietoja teoksesta

    Nail Covers — nonomura ninsei

    These ceramic pieces seem to replicate inlaid metal cloisonné nail covers. They were biscuit fired before being given a coating of transparent glaze for a principal firing, and then decorated with polychrome paints, which were in turn fired onto the surface. Because gold paint cannot be fired together with other colors, these pieces must have passed through the kiln at least four times before completion.The nail covers were passed down in the Kyōgoku family of Muragame. A record of tea ware dating from 1695, when Kyōgoku Takamochi (1692–1724) was clan chief, contains the entry “thirty paired fans, Omuro overglaze enamel fanshaped nail covers”, of which seventeen are thought to correspond to these items. “Omuro” indicates that the pieces were produced in the kiln of the early Edo-period Kyoto-ware master craftsman Nonomura Ninsei, whose work was known as Omuro-yaki. The chrysanthemum-shaped nail covers are mentioned in the 1734 On’in onsukidōgu chō (Catalogue of Tea Ware), which dates from the period when Kyōgoku Takanori (1718–63) was domain chief.Although these small pieces bear neither seal nor signature, the broad range of overglaze colors—gold, silver, red, blue, green—closely resemble those on the Kyōgoku family’s collection of Omuro-yaki overglaze-enameled tea jars and clearly display Ninsei’s salient features.

    Nonomura Ninsei (1600 - 1670): The Soul of Kyō Ware

    Nonomura Ninsei (野々村仁清), born around 1600 in Tamba, Hyogo Prefecture, remains an enigmatic figure within the annals of Japanese ceramics. Despite limited biographical details—primarily gleaned from records pertaining to his patronage by Prince Yoshitada of Ninna Temple—his legacy endures as one of the most influential artists of Kyoto’s Edo Period (1644-1868), fundamentally shaping the aesthetic sensibilities of Kyō ware, a style celebrated for its understated elegance and profound connection to nature.

    Ninsei's artistic journey began with apprenticeships in Seto, mastering the techniques of glaze formulation and vessel construction—skills that would later inform his distinctive approach to kiln firing. Recognizing the importance of tradition alongside innovation, he established Omuro Kiln (أموروكيلن), strategically positioned before Ninna Temple’s gate, securing a vital connection to the influential tea ceremony movement.

    Early Life & Training

    Information about Ninsei's formative years is scarce. However, scholarly consensus suggests that he originated from Tamba, a region renowned for its ceramic tradition. His early training likely encompassed both practical craftsmanship and philosophical contemplation—elements crucial to understanding the ethos underpinning his artistic output.

    Kyō Ware: A Singular Style

    Ninsei’s contribution to Kyō ware transcends mere technical proficiency; he cultivated a singular aesthetic characterized by graceful brushwork, meticulously rendered grasses, blossoms, and birds. Unlike many of his contemporaries who prioritized elaborate ornamentation, Ninsei championed simplicity—a deliberate choice that allowed for the subtle expression of natural beauty.

    His vessels possessed an unparalleled harmony between form and decoration, reflecting Zen Buddhist principles of emptiness and contemplation. The kiln firing technique itself was perfected by Ninsei, resulting in a distinctive glaze surface texture that further enhanced the visual impact of his creations. This meticulous attention to detail distinguishes Kyō ware from other ceramic styles.

    Collaboration & Influence

    Ninsei’s artistic partnership with his elder brother, Ogata Kōrin (1648-1715),—who established Rinpa style—represents a pivotal moment in Japanese art history. Kōrin's influence extended beyond Kyō ware, fostering a broader appreciation for naturalism and refined taste.

    Ninsei’s work served as inspiration for subsequent generations of ceramists, cementing his position as a cornerstone of Rinpa aesthetics. His legacy continues to resonate within the Kyoto ceramic tradition today, reminding us that true artistic excellence resides in understated beauty and profound contemplation.

    Notable Achievements & Legacy

    Ninsei’s most celebrated achievements include the creation of numerous tea jars—particularly those adorned with depictions of flowering plum trees—which exemplify his mastery of brushwork and glaze technique. These vessels are revered for their exquisite proportions and harmonious integration of design elements, embodying the ideals of Kyō ware.

    Furthermore, Ninsei’s involvement in decorating temple halls and residences underscored his role as a cultural icon—a symbol of Kyoto’s artistic heritage. His influence extends beyond ceramics, permeating broader aesthetic sensibilities and shaping perceptions of beauty within Japan.

    Conclusion

    Nonomura Ninsei's life may have been shrouded in obscurity, yet his impact on Kyō ware and Rinpa style remains indelible. He stands as a testament to the power of quiet contemplation and meticulous craftsmanship—principles that continue to inspire artists and collectors alike. His enduring legacy ensures that the soul of Kyoto’s ceramic tradition will forever be associated with the name Nonomura Ninsei.
