"Autumn Maples with Poem Slips" by Tosa Mitsuoki Poster
"Autumn Maples with Poem Slips" by Tosa Mitsuoki, c. 1675-----
In this delicate artwork, Japanese aristocrats enjoy the elegant tradition of reciting classical poetry while admiring spring and autumn foliage. Premier court painter Tosa Mitsuoki captures the fleeting beauty of autumn in a melancholic scene after the departure of courtiers. A cherry tree blooms on one screen, while the other displays vibrant red and gold maple leaves. Poems on slips of paper, called tanzaku, hang from the branches, bearing the lingering presence of humans. The screens, possibly commissioned by or gifted to Tofukumon'in, a daughter of the Tokugawa shogun who married the emperor Gomizunoo, reflect a renaissance of courtly taste, reminiscent of early mediaeval aristocratic life.

I hung this in the stairwell of our house, near some other Renoir pictures. My daughter says it looks like she is looking at her when she walks up the stairs.
it's called "The Excursionist", she is holding a walking stick. Renoir was an impressionist, I don't think this is an actual person. The finished framed picture arrived and looks better than the online pic - Beautiful!

Absolutely superb Art Deco poster. The colours are vibrant, sympathetic to the era and perfect for use. I framed it and hung above the entrance to my Art Deco inspired lounge room. Stunning! The print is precise, clear and of an excellent standard. It was cleverly packaged so there wasn’t a blemish or crease. Perfect!
