Rooster, Hens and Pines

Nagasawa Rosetsu (Japanese, 1754 - 1799) (Artist)
1797 (Edo)
ink and color on paper
(Japan and Korea )

This painting and its mate "Bamboo and Chicks," (Walters 35.211) are both seemingly simple works with a few scant strokes of ink. Beyond the chickens, the bare paper becomes a vast, open expanse reaching to the base of the hills and distant pines.
