Project Description
Boxwood netsuke of an Aodarakyō, by Genshiro Soya
Walking with his head ducked down, chanting and beating his clappers
Signed: Soya. Early 20th century
Height: 5 cm
Fuld is characteristically vague about the dates of the artist. Since he was apprenticed to Miyasaki Joso, who died in 1909 or 1910, I think it fair to assume that Soya was working into the 20th century
