Mit dem Namen dieses Malers gibt es ein bisschen Probleme. Man kennt ihn vor allem als Dōhaku. Doch der zweite Name wird als „Chikanobu“ oder mit andern Zeichen美信 als „Nakanobu“, „Naganobu“ etc. gelesen. Dōhaku war in seiner Zeit hoch angesehen, da er - in der 5. Generation - Leiter des Surugadai-Ateliers wurde. Atelier-Vorsteher waren nicht unbedingt Kanō-Meister in der Blutslinie; sie mussten sich in erster Linie durch Leistung auszeichnen.

Die Kanō-Schule wurde wohl deshalb so mächtig und dominierte vierhundert Jahre lang die japanische Malerei, weil sie auf einem Vorbild-Prinzip aufbaute. Große Meister der Schule schufen Modelle von ausgewählten Motiven. Aufgabe der Hunderten von Angestellten in den Ateliers war es, diese Modelle getreu zu kopieren. Individualität war nicht gefragt. Damit sicherte man ein hohes Niveau der Komposition, was sich für den Handel (und die Kanō-Schule hatte in dieser Beziehung viel Wissen und Geschick) positiv auswirkte.

Der tanzende Glücksgott Hotei (einer der Sieben Glücksgötter, chinesischen Ursprungs, die vor allem am Neujahr populär sind) ist ein viel gemaltes Motiv, das bis in kleine Details einem Vorbild folgt: Die Art wie der Gott seinen Wanderstab über den Rücken legt und seine rechte Hand, die den eindeutig chinesisch geformten Fächer hält, herunterhängen lässt, ist ebenso Standard wie das angewinkelte rechte Tanz-Bein und der voluminöse Sack auf dem Rücken. Was bei anderen Bildern dieses tanzenden Hotei nicht vorhanden ist (das ist also eine Zugabe von Dōhaku), ist der Vollmond. Doch der hat hier eine tiefe formale Beziehung zur Darstellung dieses Glückgottes: Genauso rund wie der Mond ist der Sack, der Bauch, der Glatzkopf - und die ganze Gestalt ist einem Kreis einbeschrieben. Das Konzept dieser Darstellung, die ein großer Kanō-Meister einmal geschaffen hat, ist hervorragend, und so ist es durchaus sinnvoll, dass das Bild wieder und wieder in vielen Ateliers von Kanō-Malern gemalt wurde.

Good quality pillows overall
Size: King (Pack of 2), Color: White
Got a set of these for my wife and myself as we were struggling with our old pillows. These have some really good qualities and some things we'd like to see changed. First, the good: These are look and feel like they are high quality and made with good materials. The foam itself has a very nice feel to it. We love the fact they are adjustable to add or remove foam. They come with a pretty substantial amount already in the pillow. We appreciate the CertiPur certification. Now the improvements or changes we'd like to see: The foam, while feeling great, doesn't bounce back well if you scrunch your pillows, and so every day you have to fluff and reshape the pillow, moreso than some other memory foam pillows we've owned. One side of the pillow is cooled and you can feel that even through the pillow case, and that's a great thing. However, one side is not cooled and we'd have preferred if both sides were made of the cooling material. Overall, these are good pillows and we are not disappointed with the purchase. They are not, however, our perfect pillows (which do seem hard to find), and at some point in the future will probably make their way to the guest bedroom. We would rate them as some of the better pillows we've tried and feel most people would probably like them.

Perfect Pillow
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Color: White
These are the best pillows ever. You can adjust the firmness or softness to whatever you want. For years i used a soft latex pillow , which you cant get anymore. I will never use another pillow. I have purchased 6 of these after the first one. You pick your own comfort level. Best ever. No more neck aches.

Hallelujah… finally, I found the right pillow!!!
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Color: White
I have spent a lot of money searching for the right pillow. I recently tried to Tempur-pedic that cost twice with this pillow cost. Tempur-pedic flattened out. I’ve had this pill for a few weeks now and it works wonders. I am a paraplegic. You can have a lot of neck problems. I love the fact that this pillow is adjustable. I immediately saw it was too stuffy and took a bunch out. It works perfect so glad I didn’t spend money on a $200 purple pillow. I read a lot of reviews and there were a lot of complaints about the odor. Mine did smell funny when it came out of the box. I immediately threw it in the dryer with a few bounce fabric sheets came out smelling fine. Pillows are a very individual thing, but I think for 40 bucks this pillow is worth a try. I’m really enjoying mine about one of those silk pillowcases to go over it and it sleeps cool and comfortable. Best wishes in your search for the right pillow. Update: I’ve been using this pillow several months and it continues. Give me a good night rest pain-free.. well worth the money. UPDATE: I have been using this pillow for three months and it still works great. It does not flat out or get hot..

Soft comfortable very good pillow
Size: King (Pack of 1), Color: White
I really love my new pillow it's great and comfortable. Yes, it has a little smell, but if you wash the pillowcase and put the pillow on the window for a day you won't notice anything anymore.

Best place for head
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Color: White
Do you love not getting sleep and sweating all over your pillow at night when you are asleep? If so then don't buy this pillow! If you want a good nights sleep and cool pillow like me this is the one. Ive always been ehh towards spending so much on a pillow but its 100% worth it, I sleep so much better and it forms to my head and keeps me cool at night. Great support even for my big head and comes with a bag of extra stuffing if you want to have a little more firmer pillow. Highly recommend
