Description

This impressive depiction of a rising sun over calm waves is a work from the Meiji period. In minimalist ink painting, the artist gives the waves a dynamic movement that stands in strong contrast to the calm, powerful presence of the red sun. The combination of soft, flowing lines and the intense coloring of the sun creates a peaceful yet energetic atmosphere.

The image is painted on fine paper and is framed by a jikusaki made of wood, which lends it a simple, natural elegance. This kakemono is ideal for collectors and lovers of Japanese aesthetics who appreciate the harmony between nature and balance.

Frequently asked

I am interested in this work. Do you have more of them in stock?

No – as a one-of-a-kind piece it exists in a single example only.

Can you source a similar work?

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.

Why does the date of creation sometimes not match the artist's dates

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?.
