Vintage Shōwa Japanese ink and pigment shikishi – child with tai fish
$151.66 $168.51
A vintage Japanese shikishi painting from the early Shōwa period. The work shows a traditional warabe child in a festive vest and bib, painted in ink and soft pigments on a thick shikishi board. Beside the figure stands a red tai fish, a well-known symbol of luck and celebration in Japanese visual culture.
The composition reflects the decorative character of early Shōwa painting, with clean outlines, balanced colour accents, and a gentle narrative mood.
The piece includes a signature and an artist seal.
