Traditional Shikishi Painting, Sumi-e, Japan, 1960s

A beautiful ink wash painting (sumi-e) on a traditional shikishi board, framed behind glass in a silver-colored metal frame.

Frame dimensions: height 45 cm, width 42 cm, depth 4.5 cm.

The composition depicts a classic Japanese mountain landscape with tall, misty peaks, rocky cliffs, pine trees, and a solitary figure in a boat on a calm river – a motif that evokes silence and a deep connection with nature.

The work is signed with calligraphy and a red seal, bearing the name Shōshū (昭秀). The brushwork is expressive and rich in contrast, with flowing strokes typical of the Japanese sumi-e style. This piece was likely created in the second half of the 20th century and exudes a quiet elegance that fits seamlessly into any Japanese or Asian-inspired interior.

A decorative and traditional artwork in good condition, ready to be displayed.
