Description:

Hand painted on silk. Bone end roller. The scroll box has the writing: 奇崎蛮複??翔紅?書越税群 使観若想兄女若人 ?若逸品 大正庚申若秋 東?画. The date 大正庚申 "Taisho Koshin" is 1920, and I believe "若秋" means early autumn. I am not certain that the scroll box is original to the scroll. The scroll signature is very similar to my other two "Noriaki Shotei" scrolls, and this painting also has the touch of Takahashi Shotei. Painted area is 55 x 116cm. (1) This item is either untitled or the title is unknown. This item is from my personal collection and is not for sale.
