This elegant Japanese hanging scroll (kakejiku) features a beautifully painted standing bijin (courtesan or noble lady), rendered in delicate colors on silk. Her refined posture and graceful expression embody classical ideals of beauty in nihonga art. The kimono is decorated with a striking design of karajishi and botan (Chinese lion and peony), symbols of power, protection, and prosperity. The artist’s brushwork captures fine details in the flowing garments, hair ornament, and gentle shading, creating a sense of movement and subtle depth. Mounted with wooden roller ends (mokujiku), the scroll retains its traditional format and timeless aesthetic presence. A fine example of Japanese beauty painting that blends elegance, symbolism, and impeccable craftsmanship — ideal for collectors of bijin-ga, traditional Japanese art, and antique hanging scrolls.
