Description

A popular motif in Japan at the turn of the 20th century, the figure depicted is driving a water wheel with the strength of his legs. Either the flow of the river is insufficient, or the energy released is not enough, this man climbs one after the other the blades to maintain the rhythm of the wheel.
It seems that a Japanese sculptor made this subject fashionable at the very end of the 19th century and that it was then copied by others. Our ivory okimono is in perfect condition.
