介绍（中）	柴田泽信（1807–1891）是一位杰出的艺术家，出生于江户（现在的东京），他作为学徒加入了漆艺家关西二世（1766–1835）的工作室，学习艰苦的漆艺装饰方法。随后，他搬到京都学习丸山四条画派，该画派将西方自然主义与东亚绘画技术相结合。这种训练为他复杂的艺术奠定了智力和美学基础。回到江户，泽信在江户时代的最后几十年建立了自己的职业生涯，创作了绘画和油漆书写盒等奢侈品。1890年，他成为第一位皇室漆艺家，也是日本最知名的漆艺家之一对于这个托盘的地面，泽信在未固化的漆上撒上青铜和木炭粉，创造了一个深绿色的背景。然后，他对表面进行抛光，使其具有古老青铜器的光泽和斑驳色调。他用红漆和黑漆着色，画出了农民在节日秋收期间用来把茶运到田里的青铜大茶壶。水壶的壶嘴里塞满了稻草，也许是为了防止蝗虫等昆虫靠近壶柄。刚收割的水稻秸秆被涂上凸起的金、银和蓝金，这是一种金和银的合金。还有其他托盘采用这种设计，这表明欧文示例最初是五个托盘中的一个。托盘上刻着：Gyonen nanajusan okina Zeshin【73岁的Zeshin】。
介绍（英）	Shibata Zeshin (1807–1891) was an exceptional artist, born in Edo (now Tokyo), he joined the studio of the lacquer artist Koma Kansai II (1766–1835) as an apprentice to learn the painstaking methods of lacquer decoration. He subsequently moved to Kyoto to study the Maruyama-Shijo school of painting, which combined Western naturalism with East Asian painting techniques. This training provided the intellectual and aesthetic foundation for his sophisticated art. Returning to Edo, Zeshin established his career during the last decades of the Edo period, creating paintings and luxury goods such as lacquered writing boxes. He became the first Imperial Household lacquer artist in 1890 and one of the most well-known lacquer artists in Japan. For the ground of this tray, Zeshin created a dark-green background by scattering bronze and charcoal powders on the uncured lacquer. He then polished the surface to give it the luster and mottled tone of aged bronze ware. He used red lacquer, combined with black lacquer shading, to paint the large bronze tea kettle used by farmers to carry tea to the fields during the festive autumn harvest. Straw is stuffed into the kettle spout, perhaps to keep out insects such as the grasshopper clinging to the handle. Freshly harvested rice stalks are painted in raised gold, silver and blue-gold, an alloy of gold and silver. There are other trays with this design, indicating that the Irving example was originally one of a set of five. The tray is inscribed: Gyonen nanajusan okina Zeshin [Zeshin at the age of seventy-three].
