Subject:Japanese Edo Period painting with poetry
Posted By: Unitopia Wed, Sep 28, 2022 IP: 81.226.42.48

Friends,

I would appreciate help to properly identify this painting and a translation of the poetry if possible.

The scroll measures 145 x 40 cm, and the artwork 93 x 30.5 cm. The wooden box is without any writing.

I think I have been able to identify the poet, GITOKU 祇徳 (1702 - 1754) (?). I will add an image of the whole scroll in the coming post.

Thank you kindly!

Stefan

My tentative reading of inscriptions,
觜と足に   - Shi to ashi ni
鷺と知る川 - Sagi to shiru kawa
岸濃雪 - Kishi nōsetsu
美翁三世
自在菴祇徳
River is known by the beak(s) and feet of heron(s)
The snow is deep on the riverbank
Signature;
Biō Sanze
Jizaian* Gitoku

* Biō Sanze Jizaian - pseudonyms
Gitoku 1702-1754 haiku poet

Painter`s signature;
康瓠則邑 - Kōkaku* Tokisato
*Kōkaku ca. Empty pot (Derived from Chinese; 康瓠 → 空壷) - pseudonym

I can`t identify this artist.
