- Description
Hideki Miyamae is famous for framed colored paintings, but this work is a “kakejiku” (hanging scroll) painting. This is very rare. This painting style is quite different from that of his colored paintings. “Iwa-enogu” (mineral pigments) are applied repeatedly to his colored paintings, but this painting is expressed with “sumi” (ink) as simply as possible. The simpler the expression, the more difficult becomes Japanese-style painting. A high level of drawing skill is necessary for the expression of the essential qualities of an object.
In this painting, the pine branch and the pair of cranes are painted with only those essential qualities. The pine branch is painted on the upper screen, and one of the cranes is looking up at it. This composition, which makes good use of the long and narrow screen, is very interesting.
