Item Description : This captivating oil painting titled "Tōyako (Morning)" (洞爺湖〈朝〉), created in 1972 by Japanese artist Isamu Iiyama (飯山勇), beautifully captures the tranquil morning mists over Lake Tōya in Hokkaido, Japan. Rendered in expressive, fluid brushstrokes with a soft, cool color palette, the composition evokes a serene and poetic atmosphere. The mountain in the background gently emerges through drifting morning fog, while light plays across the lake surface in subtle hues of blue, green, and warm ochre. This work is a fine example of Iiyama’s lyrical realism, reflecting both the emotional resonance and natural beauty of the landscape. The artist’s signature is located in the bottom right corner of the canvas, and the reverse bears inscriptions identifying the title and origin.
