About the Item

Exceptional Japanese contemporary two-panel "byobu" or folding screen featuring two graceful ladies dressed in elegant formal traditional Japanese kimonos. This folding screen is inspired by Japanese "bijin" (beautiful woman) artistic tradition. It showcases a traditional Japanese decorative art form using high quality silk and brocade fabrics, known as oshie (literally, “pressed pictures”) that goes back to the Edo period (1603-1868). It is said this art form was born of the reluctance of ladies of the court to discard the magnificent silk kimonos and brocaded obi they had donned for a lifetime. The solution was to recycle these opulent fabrics into stunning works of art. Oshie resembles a carefully crafted very intricate jigsaw puzzle comprising numerous pieces of kimono fabric padded with slightly differing thicknesses of cotton and painstakingly glued and ironed together to create an undulating three-dimensional picture. Highly detailed oshie pieces contain hundreds of small pieces that are expertly aligned to express subtle gradations in color, as well as light and shade. In the final process, facial features are painted in miniature-like exactitude. The end product is an awe-inspiring piece with a surprising three-dimensional effect. This byobu series conveys the beauty and sensibility that the history of Japan reflects and at the same time enhances contemporary living spaces. Dimensions: H 60 in, W 57 in, D 2 in.
