Author: Suzuki Keizan

A Late Edo Period, 19th century illustrated manuscript, written by one Suzuki Keizan, being an illustrated anatomical manual for limbs, with a focus on hands and feet. There are notes and essential instructions next to each image, on how to draw it properly.

Of what little can be found about Keizan, he was a Japanese painter from the early Meiji period and was a student to an art master by the name of Chikuden, which was most likely Tanomura Chikuden.

One manuscript in quarto (24.7 x 17.5), 20 pages of anatomy illustrations

This manuscript is in good shape, with some tears and old soiling to the covers, and one of the cords lacking. There is some scattered soiling and ink staining throughout.
