Title: Imperial Procession for a Noble, Circa 1600-1700. A Beautifully Hand painted Emakimono Handscroll, With Dozens of Vibrantly Painted Figures, All Detailed, and with Gorgeous Landscapes
Author: Style of the Kano School
Condition: Very Good

An Early to Mid Edo Period, 17th century emakimono handscroll, being what looks to be an imperial procession for a higher ranking noble. Being unsigned and untitled, we can only presume as to the identity of who this procession is for, but with the dozens of figures, armed samurai, and nobles, all done in startlingly high detail, it should be presumed that the procession is for a notable lord or prince.

All of the paintings and figures have been rendered in great details, with significant work placed into the facial details and wrinkles, and a veritable flood of color, with each grouping of nobles, courtiers, or warriors clothed in robes or kimonos of different and richly painted hues. There are also several detailed landscapes, and the shading techniques is rather reminiscent of the Kano School.

All the paintings have been laid down and bound in a handscroll, with a beautiful brocade decorated cover of blue and orange patterns. There are jikusai (knobs). There is a wooden storage box to accompany the handscroll, preserving the contents.

One emakimano handscroll on paper, 36.5 x 587 cm

This emakimano is in very good shape, with minimal rubbing and wear to the brocade cover. There are a few light creases, with a few worm tracks to the lower section, and very light, scattered soiling and spotting.
