Antique Japanese Taisho Period Screen – Maiko with Japanese Chin Puppy, Signed, Circa 1920s
This charming Taisho period screen features a delightful scene of two Maiko (apprentice geishas) playfully interacting with a Japanese Chin puppy, capturing the grace, elegance, and innocence of the era. Created during the Taisho period (circa 1920s), this piece reflects the refined aesthetic and nostalgic elegance typical of Japanese art from that time.
The Maiko, dressed in their vibrant kimonos, are shown in an intimate and playful moment with the Japanese Chin, a small and fluffy dog known for its gentle and affectionate nature. The interaction between the Maiko and the puppy symbolizes youth, beauty, and the softening influence of nature in an otherwise formal world. The signed work suggests the personal touch of a masterful artist, whose delicate brushwork and use of color convey a sense of warmth and playfulness.
The screen’s dimensions of 190 cm (width) x 174 cm (height) create a captivating vertical composition, ideal for making a statement in a traditional or modern space.
