Painting Description
"Dragon Screen" (Japanese: 龍図屏風, Ryūzu byōbu) is a renowned pair of six-panel folding screens created by the influential Japanese artist Maruyama Ōkyo (1733–1795) in 1781. The work is a significant example of Ōkyo's innovative approach to painting, which blended traditional Japanese techniques with Western realism, a style that would later be known as the Maruyama School. The screens depict a pair of dragons, one ascending amidst clouds on the right screen and the other descending on the left, both rendered with dynamic brushwork and a powerful sense of movement.
The "Dragon Screen" is considered a National Treasure of Japan and is lauded for its artistic excellence and the skillful use of ink and color on paper. Ōkyo's dragons are not only emblematic of his mastery of the traditional dragon motif in Japanese art but also showcase his unique ability to convey the creatures' mythical power and fluidity. The screens are a testament to the artist's deep understanding of the natural world and his capacity to express its essence through art.
The "Dragon Screen" is housed in the Kennin-ji Temple in Kyoto, which is the oldest Zen temple in the city. The work's historical and cultural significance is further underscored by its location, as Kennin-ji is known for its commitment to the preservation and celebration of Zen Buddhist art. The "Dragon Screen" continues to captivate viewers with its bold composition and serves as an enduring legacy of Maruyama Ōkyo's contribution to the development of Japanese painting.
