Jurjin 1838 Gan Ku (Kishi Ganku) Jurjin, one of the Seven Gods of Good Fortune, depicted wearing a tall cap and leaning on a bamboo staff, is accompanied by a deer, who holds a magical fungus in its mouth. A rolled up scroll tied to the end of the deity’s bamboo staff seems to be tangled in the branches above. Kishi Ganku, who studied paintings of the Maruyama-Shij school and others when he was in his twenties, later established his own artistic lineage, whose members endeavored to meld Japanese painting styles with elements of Western realism. While his handling of the trees and rocks follows a standard Japanese approach to landscape, his treatment of Jurjin’s facial features exhibits a characteristic interest in naturalism.. Jurjin. Gan Ku (Kishi Ganku) (Japanese, 1749-1838). Japan. 1838. Hanging scroll; ink and color on silk. Edo period (1615-1868). Paintings
