Lot 153: MATSUMURA GOSHUN (1752-1811): FARMYARD AMID LANDSCAPE

Ink and color on silk. Japan, late 18th - 19th centuryIn this scene we see a daily scene on a rural farmyard of a man carrying a vat and a boy stepping through the gate, possibly to water the brown horse. The scene is set amid a peasant surrounding - baskets, trees, waters; and a steep mountain mumbling in the far distance. Goshun's succinct painting style offers clear detail combined with a pinch of humor, to only mention the peasant's face!
