Inside the box is written Tataki Tsubo (Paddled Vessel), Kurabe Uma (Horse Race), exhibited Autumn 1958 at the Tokyo Mitsukoshi Sports Theme Art Exhibition; Ochawangama, Nakazato Tadao (given name of Nakazato Tarouemon XIII) followed by the artists seal. An excellent example of the mid-century aesthetic. The vessel is 34.5 cm (13-1/2 inches) diameter, 30 cm (12 inches) tall and in excellent condition.
