    Description

    FLOWERS & BIRDS by Genga.
    Chinese paintings, treasured by Ashikaga shoguns of the fifteenth century, exerted a strong influence on Japanese artists of the Muromachi period, when Chinese culture also served as a model for the Zen priesthood and educated elite. Little is known about the artist, but a good number of academic-style bird-and-flower paintings feature his seal or have been attributed to his hand.
    It is also featured in the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Asian Art.
    This piece is about 49" wide and 26" tall.
