Japanese Asian Signed Four-Panel Folding Byobu Showa Mountain Landscape Screen

About the Item

A gorgeous four-panel Japanese Byobu folding screen depicting a natural landscape scene with a small village and boats on the shimmering water. The dark, rich colors, gold leaf, and beautiful hand-painted detail of the surrounding mountainous landscape with forest pine trees and an expansive waterway makes this quite an attractive work. Signed (in black ink) and sealed (in red) by the artist. Likely from the mid to late Showa period (1926-1989). A beautiful and engaging work. Would be a great addition to any Japanese or Asian art/screen collection or make for an eye catching stand alone accent artwork in almost any setting whether used as a room divider or hung on the wall as a work of art. Approximate dimensions when fully extended: 36" high, 72.5" wide, .75" deep Approximate folded dimensions: 36" high, 18.5" wide, 2.75" deep.
