Japanese Scroll – 19th Century Landscape Village Scene
This Japanese scroll presents a landscape village scene, dating to the 19th century. The artwork likely depicts a traditional rural village, capturing the tranquility and simplicity of rural life in Japan during this period. These types of scenes were often used to convey a sense of harmony between nature and human habitation, with rolling hills, flowing streams, and small dwellings nestled in the landscape.
The painting itself would be a fine example of Japanese scroll painting, showcasing the artist’s ability to capture subtle details of the natural world, including trees, houses, and figures in the village. The water marks noted could suggest the piece’s age and the authenticity of the artwork, while the missing jikusaki (wooden scroll roller knob) is a minor condition issue that does not detract significantly from its beauty.
Condition:
- Some water marks, adding to the character of the piece and providing insight into its historical journey.
-
Jikusaki (scroll roller knob) is missing from the right bottom, a common issue with old scrolls but not uncommon for antique works of this age.
