Kanō Yasunobu hatte eine spezielle Stellung in der allmächtigen Kunstinstitution der Kanō-Schule. Sein Vater Takanobu starb, als er noch ein Kind war, und so kam Yasunobu als Maler-Adept in die Obhut seines ältesten Bruders Tanyū, der die überragende Persönlichkeit der Kanō-Schule im 17. Jahrhundert war. Auch sein anderer älterer Bruder Naonobu, galt als einer der ganz großen Meister. Neben diesen zwei Genies in der Familie hatte es der jüngere Bruder als Maler nicht leicht. Er spezialisierte sich denn auch zusätzlich als Kunstkenner und wurde Fachmann für Authentifikationen.

Nicht alle seine hinterlassenen Werke reichen also an die Kunst seiner beiden älteren Brüder heran (darin sind sich die Kunst-Fachleute einig), doch immer wieder finden sich Bilder, die dem Können von Tanyū und Naonobu ebenbürtig sind. Gilt das nicht auch für dieses Tigerbild? Die Maler des frühen 17.Jahrhunderts kannten Tiger nur aus Malerei-Vorbildern – erst im 19. Jahrhundert konnten Japaner erstmals in Edo (Tokyo) einen lebendigen Tiger sehen. Solchen frühen Tigern haftet also immer etwas Unwirkliches an, d.h. Tiger waren mehr Symbole als zoologische Realitäten. Dieses Bild könnte deshalb auch Teil eines Diptychons sein, auf dessen rechtem Bild ein Drache dargestellt ist; das Bildpaar hätte dann das Thema:  „Herrscher der Erde“ versus „Herrscher der Lüfte“.

Was dieses Tigerbild bewundernswert macht, ist zunächst der Umgang mit der Tusche, die - mit Ausnahme von wenigen Bambusblättern und ein paar Fellstreifen - recht wässerig ist. Schaut man sich etwa die Pfoten an, so fällt auf, dass die Beweglichkeit des Pinsels und das Tempo des Strichs stimmig der Leichtigkeit der hellen Tusche entsprechen.  Hinzu kommt, dass die katzentypische Beweglichkeit des „Herrschers der Erde“ von einer S-Form durchdrungen ist. Sie ist nicht nur klar in der Schwanzschleife erkennbar, man spürt sie auch in der Gestaltung des Hinterteils in Beziehung zum linken Hinterbein und ebenso in der Beziehung von Rumpf zu abgewinkeltem Kopf. Ein strenges (und sinnvolles) Form-Prinzip also scheint diesen Körper so zu durchdringen, wie wir das in Tigerdarstellungen jener Zeit kaum je finden.

Empowering Lessons for Young Minds
Format: Kindle
Perseverance Makes Me Stronger is a fantastic resource for children ages 3 to 8, skillfully addressing essential themes of self-confidence, emotional resilience, and growth mindset. This book is beautifully illustrated and written in a way that is engaging for young readers, making complex emotional concepts accessible and relatable. The narrative introduces children to the idea that setbacks and frustrations are a natural part of life, emphasizing the importance of perseverance and self-belief. It encourages kids to embrace challenges rather than shy away from them, fostering a positive attitude toward personal growth. The examples and scenarios presented are relevant to everyday experiences that children might face, making it easy for them to connect with the characters and messages. One of the standout features of this book is its interactive approach. The prompts and questions encourage discussions between parents and children, making it a wonderful tool for teaching emotional intelligence in a collaborative manner. This dialogue fosters a supportive environment where kids can express their feelings and learn to manage them effectively. However, while the book delivers valuable lessons, some sections feel slightly repetitive, which may lead to a loss of engagement for more advanced readers. Additionally, a bit more variety in the examples could enhance relatability for a broader audience. Overall, Perseverance Makes Me Stronger is a well-crafted and impactful book that provides young children with essential tools to navigate their emotions and build self-esteem. It’s a great addition to any home or classroom library and serves as a meaningful starting point for conversations about resilience and personal growth. Highly recommended for parents and educators alike!

Positive Message
Format: Kindle
This is a great book with a positive message about perseverance. I really enjoyed that the author used more than one example of what perseverance looks like and that not everyone will be an absolute expert right away, or even after a year. We all go through struggles in various stages of our lives and this is a good reminder for kids as well as the parent who might be reading to their child to have a positive mind-set. The art is very well done and enhances the story nicely. Well done and I recommend!

Teaching children to keep trying
Format: Kindle
I have read a few of Elizabeth Cole’s books, so I was pretty sure that this would be another great children’s book. I wasn’t disappointed. Advertisements REPORT THIS AD Nick is excited when he gets new roller skates, but he soon realizes that skating isn’t as easy as he thought. He’s about to give up when his dad talks to him about it. He gives Nick several examples of people, including his mom and his friend, who persevered and achieved their goals. It’s important to teach children that failure is part of life and that practice is important. This book does that well! Perseverance Makes me Stronger is told in rhymes and the illustrations are cute and colorful. It helps children to learn that failure is part of life, and we need to practice in order to achieve our goals.
