As Gōke notes in his commentary to the latter piece, a great earlier painter Ogata Kōrin (1658–1716) made use of the roundel device in a scroll depicting Okame, but Zeshin introduced many changes in both composition and treatment, while the application of the same device to Shōki the Demon-queller, as well as to other imaginary personalities such as Fukurokuju (one of the Shichifukujin or Seven Gods of Good Fortune) seems to have been his own innovation.Zeshin's leading pupil Shōji Chikushin (see also lots 9 and 16) not only inscribed (as he often did) an authentication inside the storage box for this piece but also decorated the box's exterior with an exquisitely brushed painting of irises, as well as having his son and pupil Shōji Hōshin finish the roller ends with a seaweed design in gold lacquer.
