The Night Parade of One Hundred Demons
Object type: handscroll
Date: 1892 – 1892
Materials: ink, paper
Culture: japanese
Artist: tachibana gadō 橘雅堂
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: japanese
Artist dates: 1868 – 1899

In this handscroll, rendered in lively, almost cartoonish brushwork, a parade of demons makes its way from right to left in this horizontal composition. The monstrous but humorous-looking creatures appear in all shapes and sizes, some taking on rather grotesque human features while others resemble animals, birds, or demonic creatures from Buddhist hell paintings. Others represent household utensils, personal accessories like umbrellas, musical instruments or ritual objects that have come to life. The imagery is based on ancient legends about demons and goblins who parade by night through the streets and even the mansions of the old capital city (Kyoto), until the coming of dawn causes them to return to their otherworldly realm. These beliefs combined with folktales claiming that worn out household utensils could be transformed into demons to plague mankind at night. Scrolls such as this are variations on the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons that can be traced back to sixteenth-century handscroll version of the theme in the collection of the Shinjuan temple of the Daitokuji temple complex in Kyoto. Another, earlier handscroll version of similar imagery by Mochizuki Gyokusen (1692–1755) is also in The Met’s Collection (2018.853.22). This handscroll very well might have been inspired by Kawanabe Kyōsai’s immensely popular illustrated book Kyōsai’s Pictures of One Hundred Demons (Kyōsai Hyakki gadan) published in 1890 (2016.751.1).

The Hell Courtesan
Object type: hanging scroll

Materials: ink, silk
Culture: japanese
Artist: seikei
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: japanese
Artist dates: 1850 – 1899
Subjects: women

Perhaps reflective of the unstable political climate, the Hell Courtesan (Jigoku Dayū) was popularly depicted in woodblock prints and paintings especially during the transitional years between the Edo and Meiji periods. Centrally located on the back of the high-ranking courtesan’s robe is Emma-Ō, one of the Ten Kings of Hell, getting ready to sentence a sinner. He is surrounded by horned demons, strategically depicted along the garment folds, whose job it is to carry out punishments. By contrast, the obi shows a bodhisattva with attendants, who are descending from the heaven as saviors for the deceased. No biographical information about this artist or other works with the same signature have come to light. A nearly identical painting by Haruki Nanmei (1795–1878), dated to 1865 and in a private Japanese collection, was no doubt the inspiration for this later work.

Textile Fragment
Object type: textile fragment
Date: 1301 – 1400
Materials: silk
Techniques: lampas
Location: spain

This textile exhibits bands of varying patterns, some including interlacing calligraphic inscriptions. Here, the texts convey wishes for happiness, good fortune and prosperity. The hues of this brightly-colored fragment - with its contrasting red, green and gold - characterize the textiles produced during the Nasrid and later periods in Spain and North Africa. Its appearance is in sharp contrast to textiles produced in earlier periods. The earlier pieces exhibit a lighter, more delicate palette of minty greens, light blues and a heavy use of golden metal-wrapped threads.

The Entrance to a Wood
Object type: watercolor
Date: 1836 – 1836
Materials: graphite, watercolor, paper
Culture: american
Artist: robert walter weir
Artist role: artist
Artist nationality: american
Artist dates: 1803 – 1889
Subjects: men,waterfalls,forests,trees

This drawing was commissioned by the distinguished American poet William Cullen Bryant as an illustration for his “Inscription for the Entrance to a Wood.” The poet advised the artist as follows: “I have thought that an opening into a thick wood, with a human ﬁgure retiring up the avenue, and an old tree or two uprooted, with some other accessories suggested by the poem, would do; but I wish to leave it all to you, who understand this matter so much better than I do.” Weir's drawing precisely matches Bryant’s description. He employed a variety of techniques in watercolor and graphite to capture the individuality of Bryant’s expression, successfully evoking a sense of “kindred calm,” and of escape from the world’s “sorrows, crimes, and cares.” As for the “accessories” that Bryant mentioned in his letter, Weir included “the squirrel, with raised paws and form erect” and “the old and ponderous trunks of prostrate trees / That lead from knoll to knoll a causey rude / Or bridge the sunken brook.”
