Sake Cup with Auspicious Plants

Texto del museo

Seifū Yohei II excelled as a painter, as evidenced by his floral and landscape designs. His works were selected as the best among Kyoto ceramics shown to jurists from Europe and the US, thus paving the way for international recognition of the studio in the late 1800s. Orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, and plum all appear on this cup and have associations with the four seasons.
