Tatebanko of River Steam Boat

This is a very nice complete tatebanko of a Meiji era steam boat and river side warehouse. The colors are bright and the sheets are sharp and clear.

Tatebanko is a forgotten Japanese art of creating amazing dioramas and scenic perspective from paper.
tebanko was popular and widely admired from the Edo period ( 17th century ) to the early 20th century.
Then it all but disappeared.

That is very nice. Also thank you.

Had a good study of it - seems fairly complex compared to the run of the mill tatebanko.

Interesting subject - may give it a go at a later stage.....

It is the bottom most picture on the main page. This gives you an idea of what the finished model should look like. If you look closely at the tabs or edges of the larger pieces, you will see a Japanese letter, you need to look for the tab on another piece which has the same letter. Those are the parts that fit together. Assembling a tatebanko is a real challenge.

Have you any idea about the painter and the date ?
I found "Hasegawa SadaShin", but it seem that there several painters with this name (different generations)...

What a wonderful tatebanko. Thanks for sharing it! I am guessing by the style that it is from before 1885, when there was more writing next to each little piece. It is noteworthy that the little steam launch flies the modern Japanese flag, which was adopted for use by ships in 1870, so I am guessing it was soon thereafter. By 1885 they were starting to build steel ships. Some tatebanko were made to show off the strange and wonderful habits of the Westerners, and some (like this one) were intended to show how the Japanese could make good use of them. The flag shows this is the latter. The Western style wharf buildings might suggest Nagasaki as the location. On page 1, there is a sign for one of the buildings that says "Telegraph Station" in English. My guess is that this is a depiction of the first steam launch built and operated in japan - but that is just speculation. the writing from that time is really hard to read, my Japanese friends tell me - anyone want to give it a try?
