About the painting

Just like Sosen, Ippo strove to express the essence of animals in ink. He made an interesting composition juxtaposing the large bear with the small crab and the pale rock with the dark bear. The interaction between the animals provides a cheerful note. This kind of visually creative

work was in great demand in Kyoto’s art market.
