- Description
- Two small Japanese six panel folding screens with depictions of various scenes. Each piece features a black border around the outer edge, followed by a blue-greyish 1 cm border which features floral/branch design in black and gold, there is also a thinner red border around outer edge of the depicted scene. Within the scenes the use of gold is prevalent, along with deep blues, greens and reds. a) In this six panel folding screen, reading from right to left, is a scene of a group of people walking alongside a cart, an ornate and protected cart, being pulled by an ox/bull (?) through the landscape of shrubs, trees, and an edge of a lake (?). On 2nd and 3rd panels from the left is a group of 3 women (possibly 4) seated. The figures within the scene are dressed in what appears to be traditional styles. b) In this six panel folding screen, reading from right to left, is a scene of a group of four figures dressed traditionally with what appears to be wings and tail-like textiles in front of steps of a white lined porch to a building. Each figure appears to be holding a vase with a plant. The two farthest right figures have orange coloured tails and the farther left figures have red tails of fabric. There is depictions of trees, shrubs, a deep blue pool. In the pool appears to be the head of a green dragon and wing and head of a bird, coloured the same as the figures, in the LRC. In the LBC appears to be a structure of red and black panels with gold inscriptions. Some of the trees have white and grey dots for leaves (?). 22.3 x 56.3 cm. Third image is of a) folding together for reference.
