Painting Description
"Pine Trees and Chinese Black Pines" is a pair of six-panel folding screens (byōbu) attributed to Tosa Mitsunobu Sr. (1434–1525), a prominent Japanese painter and founder of the Tosa school of Japanese painting. The Tosa school specialized in the yamato-e style, which is characterized by its focus on Japanese subjects, as opposed to the Chinese-influenced themes that were also popular at the time. Mitsunobu served as the official painter (edokoro azukari) to the Ashikaga shogunate, and his works often reflected the refined aesthetic of the court.
The screens depict a serene landscape dominated by pine trees and Chinese black pines, which are rendered with meticulous detail and a sense of depth. The use of gold leaf in the background is a technique commonly employed in Japanese screen painting to create a luminous and luxurious effect, which also allows the painted subjects to stand out. The pine tree, being an evergreen, is a symbol of longevity and endurance in Japanese culture, and its inclusion in art is often associated with auspicious occasions and the New Year.
While the exact date of creation for "Pine Trees and Chinese Black Pines" is not known, it is believed to have been produced during the Muromachi period (1336–1573), a time when the Tosa school was at the height of its influence. The screens are considered an important example of Tosa Mitsunobu's work and are highly valued for their artistic and historical significance.
As with many historical artworks, the provenance and attribution of "Pine Trees and Chinese Black Pines" may be subject to scholarly debate, and the screens have likely undergone conservation efforts to preserve them for future generations. Today, works by Tosa Mitsunobu and his school are held in high esteem and can be found in the collections of major museums in Japan and around the world, where they continue to be studied and appreciated for their contribution to the development of Japanese painting.
