Japanese Asian Six-Panel Folding Byobu Screen Landcape Bridge with Iris Flowers

About the Item

A gorgeous six-panel Japanese Byobu folding screen depicting a nature lake/landscape scene with a water walkway/angular bridge and blossoming iris flowers - perhaps an homage to the famed Irises screens by the famed Japanese artist Ogata Korin (Irises at Yatsuhashi (Eight Bridges) of the Rinpa school. The beautiful colors, gold leaf, and beautiful hand-painted detail of the blooming flowers make this an attractive and special work.
