Japanese Asian Large Edo Six-Panel Folding Byobu Screen Landscape Monkeys Trees

About the Item

An absolutely gorgeous, wonderfully composed six-panel Japanese Byobu folding screen/room divider depicting a family of playful monkeys among the blooming trees and mountainous landscape. The beautiful hand painted detail really makes this an attractive and special work. We have not come across or seen another screen featuring monkeys and done in such fine lifelike detail. The screen also features gold flake/ gold dust throughout. Truly a very special work. Signed and sealed in red ink by the artist. Provenance: from a Newport Beach, California estate. Original decorative period brass hardware adds another wonderful touch. A beautiful and quite unique work. This piece is sure to stand out in almost any setting whether used as a divider or hung on the wall as a work of art. Mid to late Edo Period (1603-1868). Approximate dimensions when fully extended: 65.5" High, 140" Wide, .75" Deep. Approximate folded dimensions: 65.5" High, 23" Wide, 5" Deep.
