Subject:Watanabe Kazan - A stubborn crow in the dawn
Posted By: Mikhael Sat, Jul 23, 2011 IP: 84.244.19.63

Hello! In his interesting novel 'The Sound of the Mountain' Yasunari Kawabata mentions Watanabe Kazan's ink wash called 'A stubborn crow in the dawn: the rains of June'. Does this picture actually exist? If yes, is there any chance to see its reproduction on the web? I couldn't find it myself but maybe somebody could tell. Thanks a lot! Mikhael

In the wikipedia article about the book

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sound_of_the_Mountain

is a link to article about the artist and a book about him listed.

The painting might not be posted on the internet, but the book may have an illustration of it.

Good luck,
Cal
