About this work

Mountain landscape by the water. Japan. 17th century. Ink on paper. Below right is the stamp of the famous painter Shubun (flourished 1414 -1463). However, the painting is a much later, respectful imitation of the master's style. This was not unusual in Chinese and Japanese art, where an artist was not always required to show originality. On loan from W.H. de Roos.
