Ishikawa Shizumasa was the eldest son of Sh\u014dnai domanial samurai Ishikawa Iday\u016b. His older brother was Ishikawa Masatsune (whose sobriquet was \u201cTansui\u201d \u2013 \u201cFresh Water.\u201d) Shizumasa\u2019s own sobriquet was \u201cTansen,\u201d written two ways, and he always went by \u201cTanun.\u201d He studied painting and calligraphy from a young age. In 1872, he engaged in cultivating new land at Matsugaoka (modern Haguromachi, Tsuruoka City). In 1875, he left for Kagoshima alongside other former domanial samurai of the defunct Sh\u014dnai domain, learning under the famed samurai and statesman Saig\u014d Takamori (who went by the sobriquet Nansh\u016b). Afterwards, he was invited by the Homma family of Sakata to become a government-funded solo teacher. In 1890, he engaged in a country-wide tour presenting \u201cThe Teachings of the Late Mr. Nansh\u016b,\u201d compiled alongside Mitsuya Fujitar\u014d and others. As a local artist, he painted a wide variety of works, including a portrait oil painting of Saig\u014d Takamori, Tsurugaoka Castle (oil painting), and this \u201cPainting of the Nansh\u016b Mansion at Takemura (Japanese painting)\u201d. He was the author of the written work, \u201cSatsuma Travel Diary.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 1875, Shizumasa, alongside other samurai of the former Sh\u014dnai domain, visited Takemura in Kagoshima, where Saig\u014d Takamori lived. This painting is a drawing of Saig\u014d\u2019s mansion as shown in Shizumasa\u2019s 1915 \u201cSatsuma Travel Diary,\u201d which serves as a memoir to be passed down to future generations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
