About the piece

Created by Matsumura Goshun, founder of the Shijō school, this work captures central figures of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in a moment of quiet assembly. Set against a backdrop of delicate flowering trees and stylized rock formations, the painting exhibits Goshun’s signature blend of naturalism and poetic refinement, typical of mid-19th century Japanese art.
