内容記述 | The Grassi Museum of Ethnology in Leipzig, one of the group of Saxon State museums in Germany, was established in 1869 and today houses approximately 200,000 cultural properties from around the world, including examples of Japanese art. While it has been known that the Shuten-Dôji handscrolls introduced here were formerly in the collection of the German doctor Heinrich Botho Scheube (1853-1923) who lived in Japan from 1877 to 1882, its existence has been little known in the scholarly world until now. The work consists of six handscrolls, with 50 registers of narrative text and 49 pictures, making up the magnificent full color on silk handscrolls. In total, the scrolls measure approximately 118 meters in length. The scrolls are in good condition, with the richly hued color pigments, which were unsparingly used in the scrolls, remaining in a completely intact state. Judging from the signature and seals at the end of each scroll, we know that these scrolls were painted by Sumiyoshi Hiroyuki (1755-1811). According to the Sumiyoshi school document, Sumiyoshi ryû shiso yori gaden yuishosho (住吉流従始祖画伝由緒書), in 1786 (Tenmei 6) Sumiyoshi Hiroyuki painted a “six-scroll Shuten-dôji handscroll set” as part of the wedding trousseau for Tanehime (1765-1794), an adopted daughter of the 10th Tokugawa shogun Tokugawa Ieharu, upon her marriage to Tokugawa Harutomi (1771-1853), the 10th head of the Kishû-Tokugawa family. It is thought that this set of scrolls might be the set described in the document. Tanehime’s older brother by birth, Matsudaira Sadanobu, was active as a senior advisor to the shogunate at the time of her marriage. Under the direction of Matsudaira Sadanobu, Sumiyoshi Hiroyuki was charged with important painting projects for the shogunate and imperial court. This work would have been fitting as a wedding trousseau item for a bride marrying into one of the three branch Tokugawa families from the Tokugawa shogunal family. The narrative portrayed in the scrolls essentially consists of two parts. The first half recounts how in ancient times the mythical Yamata-no-Orochi, an eight-headed, eighttailed serpent who was killed by Susanoo-no-Mikoto, was then transformed into the god Ibuki-myôjin. The first half continues with the tale of Shuten-dôji, the child born to Ibuki-myôjin and the daughter of a district governor of Shiga. This child, however, loved sake from the age of three and used to become violent as he endlessly drank. The governor forced the child into Buddhist training at Enryakuji on Mt. Hiei, hoping the alcohol prohibition there would cure him. But it didn’t, the child broke the rules and was banished from the temple. This saga led to the boy’s nickname, Shuten-dôji, literally drinking boy. Shuten-dôji tried to return to his grandfather, the governor’s house, but was rejected. Thus forsaken by both his family and the Buddhist community, he was transformed into a demon. The second half of the set recounts how Minamoto no Yorimitsu, also known as Raikô, defeated Shuten-dôji. There are various points in common between the Grassi version depiction and examples by Kanô school painters, such as the Shuten-dôji scrolls by Kanô Motonobu today in the Suntory Museum of Art. The Grassi version adds the tale of how Shuten-dôji became a demon to the renowned Yorimitsu defeating Shuten-dôji narrative, in a construct seemingly to complete the tale of the demon being vanquished. The overall structure of the scrolls is essentially the layering and combining of the myth of Susanoo-no-Mikoto vanquishing Yamata-no-Orochi, and Yorimitsu vanguishing Shutendôji. The calligraphy in the first half texts and second half texts differ, and thus we can consider that two different calligraphers were commissioned to write the texts. Mori Masayoshi, a shogunate calligraphy master who did some collaborative works with Sumiyoshi Hiroyuki, may have been the calligrapher for the second half. As the first introduction of this work in Japan, this article includes an overview of each scene in each scroll and a transcription of the text. A detailed study of the work is planned for a later article. |
