Preparing fields, a painting by Oki Toyohira dating c. 1925 enclosed in the original signed wooden box. The landscape is dominated by a red walled hut before blue and brown mountains. Fresh green buds dot the willows branching into the scene from below, and the sky is golden with sunset. A masterful painting in the transitioning Taisho-early Showa style. The silk canvas is bordered in green patterned silk and features large ivory rollers. Toyohira (1899-1980) was born in Chiba prefecture, a ...click for details

A minka thatched house lies dwarfed by shadowing trees in this fine ink on paper screen signed from the Snow Pavilion-Kenzan and dated Autumn 1926. The exagerated roof lends a sense of strength and permanance to the human dwelling, despite teh overhanging trees; as if to say We are here to stay! It is bordered in the original faded orange silk in a raw wooden frame, and has been recently freshly backed with forest green paper. The screen measures 65 x 63 inches (165.5 x 160 cm) fully extended ...click for details

Bare trees rise up from mist in this slightly sinister screen by Yasuda Hanpo dated Autumn 1925. An ox stands, symbol of strength and solitude, in the deftly brushed landscape. In the distance birds take to the dark sky. The ink has been allowed to diffuse into the paper creating a mystical aura around the heavy creature. It is performed with ink on paper, mounted on gold with vibrant red lacquer frame. Each panel is 28 x 67-1/2 inches (71 x 172 cm) and is in excellent condition, retaining ...click for details
