71.20” w x 36” H x 0’75” dA striking Japanese four-panel byōbu (folding screen) featuring an elegant landscape of flowering peonies, seasonal wildflowers, soaring birds, and a meandering stream set against a luminous gold leaf ground. Delicately rendered clouds float across the upper register, creating a sense of depth and tranquility while highlighting the screen's classic Japanese aesthetic.

Executed in the traditional Rinpa (Rimpa) style, the composition combines graceful botanical forms with expansive areas of gold leaf, making it an exceptional decorative statement for both traditional and contemporary interiors. Whether displayed as a room divider or as a dramatic wall accent, the screen brings warmth, elegance, and timeless Japanese artistry to any space.

The reverse is finished in a neutral paper backing. There is a tear to the paper on the reverse, as shown, which does not affect the appearance of the front display.
