Subject:Gold leaf Kyoto owl screen signature?
Posted By: Jemmie Thu, Feb 14, 2019 IP: 2600:387:6:807:0:0:0
Hello all,
I have this beautiful Byoba gold leaf 4 panel screen which, on the back, indicates it was made in Kyoto Japan. THere is an artist’s signature on it, along with a stamp below, and I was hoping someone might be able to tell me what the say? Or any information regarding age and artist, if anyone knows anything about this artist, please. I appreciate your help!
Thank you!
P.s. I enhanced the signature so that it could be seen better.
