About the Item

This remarkable screen from the early Edo period, circa the 17th century, showcases the influence of early Chinese art forms with its intricate ink work on a gold leafed surface. The art depicts a serene landscape that subtly changes across the panels, capturing the essence of a timeless pastoral scene with exquisite detail and a deep sense of tranquility. The gold leaf background has developed a beautiful patina through oxidation, adding a layer of depth and texture that enhances the visual impact of the ink drawings. This piece reflects the sophisticated interplay of light and texture, a testament to the craftsmanship and artistic vision of the period. Ideal for connoisseurs of classical Japanese and Chinese art, this screen is a testament to the cultural exchange and artistic collaboration that defined the era. DM us to find out more.
