Japanese Screen mid Edo gold leaf

About the Item

This 18th century six-panel screen is truly special. The author is unknown, but his singular genius in portraying dozens of chrysanthemum flowers created with the white of the "gofun" oyster, seen today are of a subtle modernity. Up close, I assure you, it moves. The state of conservation is good both for the painted hinges of the screen panels. Its state of conservation is excellent considering that it is almost three centuries old, the hinges of the panels are in excellent condition. If you wish, we can provide free metal hooks to hang the screen on the wall. We have the permit for free export from Italy so shipping times can be quick. Lucio Morini guarantees the authenticity and provenance of the work. The seriousness of the antique dealer is certain thanks to the long experience of over 40 years of activity serving numerous customers in Italy and around the world.

Edo Landscape Japanese Folding Screen
By Japanese Studio
Located in Brescia, IT
Refined work by a painter from the first half of the 19th century, from the landscape of the "Rinpa" school by a painter from the end of the 18th century, the Rinpa school. Six panels painted in ink on gold leaf and "gofun" on vegetable paper. The flowers are made with the "gofun" technique, natural or pigmented white oyster powder. Rinpa is one of the major historical schools of Japanese painting. The style was consolidated by the brothers Ogata Korin (1658–1716) and Ogata Kenzan (1663–1743). This folding screen has a very clean design that leaves plenty of room for the beautiful golden landscape. It comes flat and you can easily hang it with our hooks. Lucio Morini...
