This refined Japanese hanging scroll (Kakejiku) by Nonouchi Yasutaro (野々内保太郎) depicts a powerful hawk perched on a chestnut tree, executed by hand in color on silk. The painting bears the artist’s signature and seal and is presented with its original signed wooden box (tomobako). The hawk is rendered with careful attention to its sharp gaze, feathers, and commanding posture, creating a strong yet elegant presence. In Japanese art, hawks have traditionally symbolized strength, courage, intelligence, authority, and success, making them a popular subject in classical bird-and-flower painting. The chestnut tree provides a natural setting and creates an attractive contrast with the finely depicted bird of prey. The balanced composition and delicate coloring reflect the refined aesthetic of traditional Japanese Kachō-ga (bird-and-flower painting). The work is mounted in the traditional hanging-scroll format and fitted with bone roller ends, further enhancing its presentation. It would appeal to collectors of Japanese paintings, hawk imagery, Kachō-ga, and traditional hanging scrolls. As an older artwork, it may show stains, foxing, fading, creases, repairs, or mounting wear. Please examine all photographs carefully for the signature, seal, silk painting, bone roller ends, original box, dimensions, and overall condition. Measurements (Approx.)cm
