Vintage Heisei Japanese sumi-e shikishi – Bamboo

Vintage Japanese shikishi from the Heisei era, painted in sumi-e ink with a bamboo motif. The work is dated 1994 on the reverse. The composition follows the classic training structure of sumi-e: confident vertical strokes for the stems and light brushwork for the leaves. Signed in red ink. Suitable for display or collection.

About the Artist
The note on the reverse indicates that the work was created in the class of Murasaki-sensei. This reflects the typical practice of Heisei-era sumi-e studios, where students produced works under the supervision of a master. The specific attribution remains open, yet the studio context confirms authentic origin and the characteristic teaching style of the period.

Style Note
Free, study-based sumi-e technique of the Heisei period.

Condition
Good vintage condition. Vintage works may show natural signs of age (light toning, small fiber creases, gentle edge wear), so please review the photos carefully.
