Toelichting
Een surimono is een luxe uitgevoerde prent waarop beeld met één of meerdere gedichten gecombineerd is. Bij het drukken van een surimono werd vaak gebruik gemaakt van dikker papier, blinddruk en metaal pigmenten, zoals koper- en zilverpoeder. De prenten werden vaak in opdracht van dichters gemaakt en als exclusief geschenk aan vrienden en relaties gegeven.

Context
Senshuroa [Katamaru, earlier Yashoku Katamaru, a judge of the Kandagawa].2(Kano, Kaian (ed.), Kyoka jinmei jisho (Dictionary of Names of Kyoka Poets). Kyoto: Rinsen shoten, 1977 (1928), p. 46.) Kano3Kano, Kaian (ed.), Kyoka jinmei jisho (Dictionary of Names of Kyoka Poets). Kyoto: Rinsen shoten, 1977 (1928), p. 148. has a Horaisha, also known as Shurakuen Toshizumi, from Sakai in Izumi Province, a judge of the Gogawa. It is difficult to ascertain whether this is the same as the Rinshutei Toshizumi here. As for Senshuro, his identity is further complicated by Kano4Ibid., p. 46. which has Senshuro Katamaru, earlier Yashiki Katamaru, a judge of the Kandagawa, whereas Suga5Suga, Chikuho, Kyoka shomoku shusei. Kyoto: Rinsen shoten, 1977, p. 210. considers Senshuro Katamaru as identical to Jigyodo Katamaru.Kano, however, treats these as different people, Jigyodo Katamaru (1758-1823) being identified as a judge of the Suichikugawa.6Kano, Kaian (ed.), Kyoka jinmei jisho (Dictionary of Names of Kyoka Poets). Kyoto: Rinsen shoten, 1977 (1928), p. 46.
The artist
Biography
Ryuryukyo Shinsai (n.d., but often given as 1764?-1820; the latter date is definitely incorrect as his last known designs were issued in 1825) is said to have first been follower of Tawaraya Sori, and later of Katsushika Hokusai, who gave him the art-name Shinsai in 1800. His personal name was Masayuki. He was one of the most prolific designers of surimono in the early 19th century and thoroughly explored the possibilities of issuing works in titled series.
Entry
Four variously patterned rolls of silk crêpe fabric.
Four poems by Kashutei Kurimaru, Senyoro Mizugaki, Rinshutei Toshizumi and Senshuro.
The first poem alludes to the red cloth:
Mist reflects the deep red morning sun upon the lingering snow - like a printed silk crêpe.
The second reads:
As though they are wearing court trousers of finely-patterned crêpe - the distant mountains shrouded in mist.
The other two poems also refer to silk crêpes.
Issued by followers of the poet Senshuro Katamaru
Signature reading: Shinsai
