Design Plus Gallery presents a Four Panel Screen Showcasing Tethered Hawks from Japan. Hawks tethered to their perches, awaiting release by their masters, symbolize military preparedness and valor. Their fearsome beauty and predatory features—sharp beaks, keen eyes, long curving talons—made them metaphors of martial training and the warrior spirit. The artist Soga Chokuan, renowned for his hawk paintings, received many commissions from leading samurai for either individual paintings or sets of tethered hawk images painted individually and pasted onto folding screens. This could be an original of his, no province. The screen folds up to a blank template, overall good condition for its likely antique age.
