On the Design: This coveted turn-of-the-century work enjoys a bold depiction of male and female lions in the wild. A subtle artist’s signature in Japanese Kanji is found in the lower-right corner, further lending to the rare provenance. Connoisseurs may further note a brilliant textural element, marrying the setting’s depictions of nature and the warm beige-brown colorway in a uniquely immersive fashion even for this regal origin. A masterpiece of culture with the utmost quality of craft and graphic personality like so few in existence.
On the Condition: In pristine condition, exclusively for wall-hanging projects as this construction is not suitable for flooring. less
