From the collection of Metropolitan Museum of Art
Festive Dancing at a Samurai Residence (Fūryū odori zu byōbu) is a 1660 unspecified by Unknown, a Ukiyo-e work, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting shows a lively scene of people dancing and celebrating in a large room. The room has a high ceiling and a staircase leading up to a balcony. The dancers are dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, and some are playing instruments. The painting is divided into four panels, each showing a different part of the scene. The colors are muted, with shades of brown, beige, and black dominating the palette. The overall effect is one of energy and joy, as if the dancers are lost in the music and the moment.
