AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

小山榮達 Koyama Eitatsu (1880-1945)
Born in Tokyo in 1881. His first name was Seiji. Studied Western-style painting under Honda Kin-kichiro, Japanese-style painting under Suzuki Eikyo and history painting under Kobori Tomoto. Exhibited at the Teiten and Shinbunten and received an exemption of examination. He was active in the government exhibitions, painting his best historical paintings and samurai pictures.

with signature 'Eitatsu e' 榮達 繪 and seal 'Eitatsu' 栄達

A powerful and finely detailed painting of a mounted samurai by Koyama Eitatsu, an accomplished early 20th-century Nihonga artist. The warrior’s poised posture, elegant armor, and the spirited movement of the horse are depicted with precision and vitality. Softly fading mountains and the pale ground create a sense of depth, allowing the central figure to stand out with dramatic clarity. This piece features makie-decorated jikusaki (roller ends), beautifully executed in black lacquer with gold motifs—an elegant enhancement that adds artistic and craft value to the work. A refined and expressive scroll suitable for collectors of samurai art, classical Japanese painting, and works highlighting Japanese lacquer craftsmanship.
