Known as an unsuccessful artist, he demonstrated his extraordinary talent not only in pottery, but also in seal engraving, lacquer art, and calligraphy. The greatest work of Rosanjin Kitaoji, the great master of comprehensive art who left behind numerous masterpieces and legends. This work is a splendid piece of red painting drawn on the vessel surface with accurate potter's wheel molding and relaxed brushwork. Rosanjin's high level of artistry can be seen in the harmonious combination of deep, calm red gosu, silver brush marks, and vivid green and yellow. In recent years, Rosanjin's co-baked sake cup works have become extremely rare, and works like this are rarely seen.
