Description from the seller
A striking hanging scroll depicting a vivid red sun rising above dynamic ocean waves, signed “Daikan” (大貫). While the identity of the artist remains unknown, the composition reflects a bold and expressive style typical of early to mid-20th-century Japanese painting. The rising sun symbolizes renewal, vitality, and imperial strength, while the crashing waves evoke nature’s power and the spirit of perseverance. This motif is often associated with auspicious themes and patriotic sentiment, especially in prewar and wartime visual culture. Executed with mineral pigments and energetic brushwork, the painting balances intensity and simplicity, making it suitable for both display and contemplation. The scroll is housed in a wooden storage box, ensuring protection and presentation. A visually impactful and culturally resonant piece for collectors of Japanese landscape painting, symbolic art, and early modern scrolls.
