This elegant hanging scroll portrays two doves resting beneath blooming plum branches, a classical motif symbolizing harmony, peace, and the arrival of spring. The gently arching plum tree, rendered with delicate blossoms and fresh green leaves, introduces seasonal vitality, while the pair of doves face one another in quiet balance, creating a calm and intimate composition. Executed with fine brushwork and soft mineral pigments, the birds’ feathers are carefully layered to convey volume and texture without excess ornamentation. The warm golden ground enhances the sense of tranquility and refinement typical of Taishō–Shōwa period Nihonga. The composition favors clarity and grace, making it well suited for traditional interior display. The artist’s signature and seal are present, contributing to the authenticity and decorative appeal of the work.
