Description

In this masterful Japanese landscape painting from the Meiji era, mountains, trees, and misty veils merge into an image of poetic stillness and natural elegance. Gently shimmering wisps of fog envelop distant mountain peaks, lending the scene a mysterious depth. Luminous, autumn-colored leaves provide colorful accents, capturing the transience and beauty of this particular season in an impressive manner.

The artfully composed painting was carefully executed on high-quality silk, in which the fine brushwork and subdued coloring create an exceptional balance between clarity and subtle suggestion. The stylish jikusaki made of bone complement the artwork harmoniously and emphasize its authentic, historical quality.

This hand-painted kakemono is ideal for rooms meant to exude a calm and contemplative atmosphere. It is a special piece for art lovers who appreciate the charm of traditional Japanese landscape painting and seek a connection to its deeply rooted aesthetic. A timeless companion that offers the viewer moments of stillness and inspiration.

Frequently asked

No – as a one-of-a-kind piece it exists in a single example only.
We would be glad to look for one. Get in touch with the details of the object you are looking for and we will see what we can do.
Because the two pieces of information speak about different things: the period designation describes the object – support, colors, condition – while the signature reflects which name appears on the painting. In most cases there is no attempt at deception behind this, but rather Japanese painting training: copying from workshop models was the curriculum for centuries, an utsushi is regarded as a bow to the teacher, workshops signed with the master's name, and artist names were passed down within a school. Such a hanging scroll is therefore not a forgery, but a hand-painted one-of-a-kind that continues the formal language of its school – just not the work of the famous name, and priced accordingly. We explain this in detail in the guide Why does a kakemono often bear the signature of an artist long deceased?.
