Byôbu 屏風 (biombo) - Pan de plata, Madera lacada, Seda - Japón - Periodo Edo (1600-1868)
A charming, tall six-panel byôbu 屏風 (folding screen) with a painting in black ink (sumi) on a backdrop of deeply oxidized silver leaf.
The artwork portrays a tiger 虎 (tora) set within a bamboo grove 竹 (take). Captured in a moment of anticipation, the tiger rests its front paws on a large, slanting bamboo tree, with its tail elegantly raised, as it gazes intently into the distance.
Silver leaf continuously undergoes the process of oxidation, which creates a beautiful aged patina.
Sealed twice in the lower left corner.
Mounted by two silk borders, a thin dark green brocade one, and a broad light ecru one with red tones. Framed by black lacquered wood with protective metal hardware.
The protective frame was expertly refurbished at a later (more recent) date in Japan. A highly skilled craftsmanship that requires a lot of expertise and knowledge. Features black lacquer and protective hardware with floral decors.
