Artwork Details

Title: Textile Panel

Date: circa 1910

Location: Japan

Materials: silk embroidery

Dimensions: 79.5 x 105 cm

Accession Number: MISC 38

Other Notes:

The scene depicted here is Gion no yozakura, the night-time viewing of cherry-blossom in Kyoto’s Maruyama Park, which opened in 1871. The source of this striking composition has not yet been identified, but it is possibly by the Kyoto artist Asai Chu, who designed a number of landscape-format albums of urban scenes, for example Jusei gako, published in 1895.
