This exquisite Meiji screen presents a dual narrative of nature's calm and vitality. On the golden side, young pines symbolize peace and longevity, standing resilient through the seasons. The reverse, with its silver-oxidized elegance, captures the dynamic grace of herons—a motif often associated with noble solitude and a watchful, patient wisdom in Japanese culture. The herons are depicted mid-movement, their forms a delicate dance that animates the stillness of the lake. Embrace the artful balance of stillness and motion with this unique piece.
