Edward A. ‘Ted’ Wrangham (1928-2009) formed one of the most important collections of Japanese Art in modern times.

Ogata Korin (1658-1716)
, who earned the title of Hokkyo, was a follower and the greatest exponent of the versatile artist and craftsman, Hon’ami Koetsu (1558-1637). Rinpa is a modern term that refers to a distinctive style of Japanese pictorial and applied arts that arose in the early seventeenth century and has continued through modern times. Literally meaning ‘school of Korin,’ Rinpa derives its name from Ogata Korin (1658–1716), a celebrated painter from Kyoto. It embraces art marked by a bold, graphic abbreviation of natural motifs, frequent reference to traditional court literature and poetry, the lavish use of expensive mineral and metallic pigments, incorporation of calligraphy into painting compositions, and innovative experimentation with new brush techniques. Transmitted by means of pattern books and manuals, the work of the Ogata Korin inspired numerous other craftsmen and it is said that the artist almost never signed his work, and examples bearing his signature exist from the 18
th
century to the early 20
th
century, the present inro certainly belongs to the former, likely made by a highly-talented 18
th
-century Rinpa artist, perhaps even a contemporary of Korin.
