As we begin the Year of the Rat, I have\nbeen receiving many greeting cards from Japan featuring charming depictions of\nthe rodent, one of the twelve animals which appear in the Chinese zodiac. This\nmade me think of how prevalent as well as captivating the representation of\nanimals is in Japanese art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Animals are a great subject for artists. This has been the case since ancient times, across centuries and cultures. They afford great possibilities for composition, from realistic, lively representations to more stylised images. As a subject, animals can be charming, playful, ornamental, fierce and, generally speaking, animal imagery is attractive to all viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Animals seem to be particularly beloved by Japanese artists and have been represented since the earliest times. There are examples dating from the Kofun period, around the 5th, 6th century, such as haniwa<\/em> clay models of horses that have been found in burial mounds. Some are still in excellent condition and display details such as a harness, a saddle and other decorative fittings. It is believed that these figures represent the first domesticated horses in Japan; at the time they were regarded as symbols of power and as such fit to accompany deceased persons of high ranking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Animals in Japanese art of course such a\nbroad theme that is not possible to offer any kind of overview, even\nelementary, and I would not like this essay to turn into an interminable list.\nBut here are a few illustrations of works of art representing animals, in no\nparticular order but selected for their attractiveness as well as the story\nthey might invoke, which I hope will make for an enjoyable perusal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be they domestic, wild or fantastical,\nanimals play a salient role in Japanese culture. They appear in folklore, were\nused to measure time as signs of the zodiac (like the rat this year), can be\nsymbolic of the changing seasons, and allow for lively interpretations of\nproverbs and stories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dragonfly is auspicious in Japanese art. Some time ago I found it fascinating to learn that it was considered emblematic of military success. As such the insect was often represented on objects related to samurai, for example here a tsuba<\/em>, the round metal guard placed at the end of a grip on a sword. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its distinctive shape and patterns, as well as rich colours, the dragonfly was also attractive to Western artists and it was a much-loved subject at the time of \u201cJaponism\u201d, when in the late 19th century Japanese art became all the rage in the West. The American creator of luxury objects, Louis Comfort Tiffany, selected the dragonfly as one of the most emblematic images inspired by Japan. His contemporaries Emile Galle and Rene Lalique in France did the same. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One cannot think about animals in Japanese art without mentioning the famous Kyoto painter Ito Jakuchu who between 1757 and 1766 created an extraordinary series of hanging scrolls titled \u201cThe Colourful Realm of Living Beings.\u201d Now in the collection of the Imperial Household, these thirty paintings on silk are incredibly varied and dynamic, ranging from roosters to phoenixes and from fish to snakes, with strikingly vivid colours and captivating details, in beautifully arranged compositions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Animals were also a popular source of inspiration for netsuke<\/em> carvers. Netsuke<\/em> were worn by men in the Edo period as a toggle around their sash. Sculptures in miniature, they were very personal objects that had to be not only aesthetically pleasing but also with smooth contours, so as not to damage the fabric of the kimono. The animal kingdom provided a wealth of subjects; one netsuke<\/em> remarkably features all twelve animals of the zodiac assembled together. Another that caught my attention in the collection of the British Museum features a deer, an animal often represented in fine and applied arts in Japan. In this instance, the object has a graceful elongated shape and shows a stag crying for its mate, a symbol evocative of autumn and loneliness in classical Japanese poetry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To finish I am thinking about another deer,\nthis time by contemporary artist Kohei Nawa who included the animal in his\nseries of PixCell sculptures in which he covers taxidermied animals in\ntransparent beads. These magnify and distort different parts of their bodies in\na mesmerizing way. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

There are examples dating from the Kofun period, around the 5th, 6th century, such as haniwa clay models of horses that have been found in burial mounds. Some are still in excellent condition and display details such as a harness, a saddle and other decorative fittings. It is believed that these figures represent the first domesticated horses in Japan; at the time they were regarded as symbols of power and as such fit to accompany deceased persons of high ranking.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/feature\/japanese-art-according-to-sophie-richard-the-captivating-animals-in-japanese-art\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"ja","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/feature\/japanese-art-according-to-sophie-richard-the-captivating-animals-in-japanese-art\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"ja","@id":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/feature\/japanese-art-according-to-sophie-richard-the-captivating-animals-in-japanese-art\/#primaryimage","url":"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/5b1003db46892e470017b1cecfaccc7e-2.jpg","contentUrl":"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/5b1003db46892e470017b1cecfaccc7e-2.jpg","width":720,"height":444},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/feature\/japanese-art-according-to-sophie-richard-the-captivating-animals-in-japanese-art\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Japanese art according to Sophie Richard: On captivating animals in Japanese art"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/tsumugu-admin.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/#website","url":"https:\/\/tsumugu-admin.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/","name":"\u7d21\u3050\u30d7\u30ed\u30b8\u30a7\u30af\u30c8","description":"\u65e5\u672c\u7f8e\u3092\u5b88\u308a\u4f1d\u3048\u308b\u300c\u7d21\u3050\u30d7\u30ed\u30b8\u30a7\u30af\u30c8\u300d","potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/tsumugu-admin.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"ja"},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/tsumugu-admin.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/#\/schema\/person\/ce8d69742f14b3f683790af1052a2ce1","name":"\u677e\u6d66 \u4e00\u6a39","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"ja","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/c8bb7144568c485a31c25e7c75fdfc7df0affc0da3dddd1e21206da18912b634?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/c8bb7144568c485a31c25e7c75fdfc7df0affc0da3dddd1e21206da18912b634?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/c8bb7144568c485a31c25e7c75fdfc7df0affc0da3dddd1e21206da18912b634?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"\u677e\u6d66 \u4e00\u6a39"}}]}},"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-07-05 16:57:44","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3026","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/22"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3026"}],"version-history":[{"count":33,"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3026\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25937,"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3026\/revisions\/25937"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3244"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3026"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3026"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tsumugu.yomiuri.co.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3026"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
