Description from the seller

This refined Japanese hanging scroll (kakejiku) features a graceful standing beauty (bijin), hand-painted by Chokkan (直観). Executed in delicate pigments on silk, the artwork highlights elegant posture, refined facial expression, and flowing kimono lines that embody the serene charm of traditional nihonga beauty painting. The subtle color gradation and meticulous brushwork reflect classical Japanese aesthetics, emphasizing harmony, femininity, and poise. Mounted with ceramic roller ends (tojiku), the scroll carries an additional sense of elegance and craftsmanship. Preserved in its original wooden storage box (tomobako), it remains an exquisite example of Japanese bijin-ga, suitable for collectors of classical figure painting, hanging scrolls, and traditional Japanese art.
