2017 is the year that is exactly 380 years since Iwasa Matabei (Iwasa Mabae) came to Edo. I will try to understand who it is and what a soldier is.
What is Iwasa Matabei? That life
Matei is an artist who has been active since the Momoyama period and early in the Edo period, but his father is a warring military commander! ! Born in Settsu country (now Hyogo) in Tensho 6 as Ariko-mura Shigeko, who was also a vassal of Oda Nobunaga. Even though he is a child of Warring States warlords, why did he become a painter far from war? The reason was my father, Murashige. Murashige, who should have been heavily used by Oda Nobunaga, somehow tries to rebel against Nobunaga. The reason is that there are various theories and it is not clear even now, but because of the rebellion, it is forced to flee again and seems to have made a living by literature and pictures. I don't know what happened with Nobunaga, but if you're a child, you're a troubled father.
Iwasa Matabei Emaki's masterpiece "Yamanaka Tokiwa Monogatari Emaki" is amazing
Active in the early Edo period, a mysterious artist who left many masterpieces, Iwasa Matabei. It is considered to be the highest masterpiece "Yamanaka Tokiwa Monogatari Emaki". The total length of the exhibition is over 70m, which is a powerful exhibition.

A lively and powerful style, with cleverness of nature and customs, the miserable scenes are drawn so intensely as to hurt the heart, a wildly fluctuating Yoshitsune legend. You can also carefully watch the fine details. At the same time, the exhibition also displays works of important cultural properties and important art objects. I am amazed by the ink paintings, storytellings, poetic paintings, and the illusionary brushstrokes of the illusionist.
Genji's picture of Iwasa Matabei is also great
"Genji picture" I have heard somehow but ...
Genji-e is a painting based on "Genji Monogatari". The image of the picture scroll is strong from the impression of the Genji Monogatari picture scroll, but it is not only the picture scroll that the Genji picture was drawn but from the booklet to the hanging axis, it is up to a folding screen. It's a surprise. Genji's picture of the sculpting style is absolutely powerful!
What does the story of Genji mean after all?
The Tale of Genji is a large-length story established in the middle of the Heisei period. The author is said to have a total of 54 million letters in purple Shikibu and about 1 million characters. Such a story is from the place where the main character Mr. light source was born to after death. About 70 years of events are drawn. From an early age, Mr. Hikari, who is blessed with beauty and talent, falls in love with many women. It's a sad story, a funny story, a story that draws a little. Also, Shibai delicately depicts various scenes of such a story of Genji in his work.
The great place of Genji's picture of Mamobei!
“The Tale of Genji Nonomiya Figure” is the scene of a farewell to the older Rokujo Sansho. However, it was not a part of farewell that I drew, but it was a scene where I was able to meet in front of the torii with a desire to rush from the center of the city. There is also a scene of the encounter with the moonlit night that I met at the spring feast, "Flower reception chart". This is not a scene where Genji sees the approaching moonlit night, but it is a scene where the time went a little bit from there. Also, Beibe is good at creating a unique sense of tension by carefully avoiding standard scenes and giving a fresh sense of presence to a close-up to the main character, and it is said that it is only Beibe to draw such a picture of Genji. You are
Why don't you read the Tale of Genji?
The exhibition at the Idemitsu Museum of Art has ended, but how about reading the story of Genji with this opportunity? If you are tempted to read the original text of the Tale of Genji very hard to read, I would recommend the novel version of the Tale of Genji, a novelist born by the novelist Hayashi Mariko!
By using the innovative method of "one-to-one talk" in Rokujo place of residence that is originally only one of the characters and also appears in the Nobenomiya figure of Biei, the masterpiece of global classical literature can be enjoyed by modern people in a realistic way It has become a major play of sexual love.
