A six-panel Showa period Japanese screen, hand painted with ink, color and mineral pigments on gold leaf paper. The screen features flowering plants and birds by a stream. The stream, in a delicate pastel blue, weaves through the composition in harmonious contrast to the huge swathes of warm gold leaf. A lighter blue extends to the ground, where green rocks and vibrant flowering plants are depicted. The birds and flowers are portrayed with exquisite delicacy, set against the bold, modern simplicity of the gold and blue backdrop. The result is a striking, successful, and masterfully balanced composition.
