Antique Taishō–Shōwa Japanese tanzaku – figure and face

Original antique Japanese artwork in tanzaku format, executed on paper with ink and pigments. The composition depicts a stylized human figure with a face, shown in a fragmentary manner with emphasis on facial features and elements of clothing. The work bears a vertical inscription, a signature, and a red artist’s seal.

The stylistic character and overall visual language correspond to the late Taishō to early Shōwa period, reflecting transitional approaches in Japanese small-format works of the early 20th century.
