The handwritten research records he compiled throughout his life amount to 42 volumes comprising 240 books (held by Kyushu University's Faculty of Letters).

The inscription above the seal reads “Kansei Mizunoe-Ushi Shoka” (Early Summer, 1793), placing the work in the final years of Ōkyo’s life, when his brushwork reached a state of refined simplicity and poetic depth.\u003cbr\u003eIn Japanese symbolism:\u003cbr\u003e- The wagtail represents agility, purity, and seasonal transition, often associated with water and autumn.\u003cbr\u003e- The waves evoke movement, impermanence, and the quiet rhythm of nature.\u003cbr\u003e- Together, they form a composition that reflects harmony between life and environment, a hallmark of Ōkyo’s style.

While serving as a shogunate official at the accounting office and rising to the position of chief accountant, he also gained high renown in literary pursuits. Alongside leaving behind a vast quantity of essays, he excelled in kyōka, satirical books, Chinese poetry and prose, and kyōshi. He was particularly renowned for his kyōka, being counted among the Three Great Masters of Kyōka alongside Karakura Tachibana and Shuraku Sugae.

Both artists added their signatures and seals: Okyo with “Okyo” and the seals “Okyo no in \/ Chusen”, and Nanpo with “Kyokaen” and the seal “Nanpo.” The composition captures a dynamic moment—an energetic carp rising through rippling water—symbolizing perseverance, good fortune, and success, themes highly appreciated among Edo-period scholars and aesthetes. Nanpo’s refined calligraphy harmonizes beautifully with Okyo’s naturalistic brushwork, forming a rare and desirable pairing of painting and literature. This scroll is accompanied by an appraised box written by “Roka-an Shujin” (弄花庵主人), an Edo-period connoisseur known for providing authoritative box inscriptions. His appraisal adds historical weight and ensures the work’s long-standing appreciation and careful preservation. A fine example of late-Edo collaborative art, combining the technical brilliance of Okyo with the poetic sophistication of Ota Nanpo—highly recommended for collectors seeking works with strong provenance and cultural significance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhole dimensions: 32.2\" W x 68.3\" H \/ 82cm x 173.7cm\u003cbr\u003eInside dimensions: 27.9\" W x 32.6\" H \/ 71.1cm x 83cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Silk\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Handpainted\u003cbr\u003eRoller ends: Pottery\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 1220g including Appraised Box\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAntique items have originally crease, stain, damage, and more.
