Untitled is a 5 ink by Yōshū (Hashimoto) Chikanobu, a Impressionism work, depicting king, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This triptych shows three busy scenes with bright colors and sharp lines. On the left, a group of men in fancy robes and hats stand around a woman in a green dress. The middle panel has a seated figure in a high chair handing something to a man kneeling below. The right panel shows more people in rich clothes, some holding fans or scrolls, with a red background and gold accents. The scenes feel like a mix of daily life and important moments, with lots of text in Japanese. The artist used bold colors and clear outlines to tell a story across all three panels. Look up Yōshū (Hashimoto) Chikanobu next to see more of his work.
