The red walls of a mountain monastery appear between the precipitous crags on this large scale painting by Komura Suiun enclosed in the original signed wooden box c. 1920. The composition escalates, guiding ones vision past the lone occupant of the mountain monastery to the quatrain in the top corner. The mature technique of a master painter; it is performed with ink and light color on silk in a fine silk border with large, solid ivory rollers. The scroll measures 26 x 79 inches (65 x 201 cm) and is in excellent condition. Suiun (1874-1945) was born in Gunma prefecture, and studied the Nanga style under Tazaki Soun. He exhibited with the Nihon Bijutsu Kyokai and Bunten, and served as a juror for the later. He was instrumental in the foundation of the Nihon Nanga-in and was appointed a member of the Imperial Art Academy. His works are held in the collection of the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo among many others.
