Samurai Painting (武士図)
Artist: Kihō (喜邦)
Paper Size: 207 × 62.5 cm (81.49 × 24.61 in)
Image Size: 126 × 49 cm (49.61 × 19.29 in)
Material: Paper mounted on silk
Technique: Hand-painted
Scroll Knobs: Bone
This Japanese hanging scroll centers on a scene involving Japanese samurai. In the painting, the samurai wears armor dominated by a red color scheme, with armor plates neatly arranged and adorned with exquisite patterns—every craft detail exudes sophistication. A samurai sword hangs at his waist, and the fittings of the sword are exquisitely designed, fully showcasing the refined texture of the samurai’s weaponry. Beside the samurai stand attendants and a horse, while the background is accented with trees. The overall composition not only conveys a sense of context, such as the samurai’s journey, military campaign, or participation in a ceremony, but also vividly presents the unique style of Japanese samurai culture. From the clothing patterns and armor structure to the details of the weaponry, the work not only clearly shapes the classic image of a traditional Japanese samurai but also reflects the lifestyle and cultural connotations of the samurai class during a specific historical period.

Due to the passage of time, the paper shows signs of oxidative yellowing, mold spots, creases, and damage; however, the colors of the painting remain bright.
