A Six-panel Kanō School Screen Depicting Bamboo On A Gold Leaf Ground
A six-panel Kano school byobu, painted in ink and pigments on gold leaf applied to paper, depicting an elegant landscape with bamboo, pine trees, and a small sparrow in flight.
The composition is distinguished by its refined balance of filled and open spaces. A gentle grassy slope extends across the screen, from which slender bamboo stalks rise alongside young pine trees, traditional symbols of resilience, longevity, and prosperity.
The background, entirely covered in gold leaf, enhances the luminosity of the scene, creating the serene and contemplative atmosphere characteristic of Kanō school painting.
Period: Meiji era, late 19th century.
Dimensions: 172 x 377 cm.
Condition: The screen is in good condition with slight signs of wear on the surface and the lacquered frame.
