About the Item
Japanese Edo Period (1603-1868) folding screen, (Byōbu) featuring bamboo, flowers and pines on paper background with gold clouds.
Byōbu are traditionally made with multiple joined panels, each featuring a wooden frame covered with layers of washi paper, often adorned with gold leaf (kinpaku) before painting. The panels are connected by paper hinges.
Originally used to block drafts and provide privacy, byōbu evolved to become important decorative and functional elements in both palaces and homes. They were used in various settings, including tea ceremonies, as backdrops for performances, and as symbols of wealth in samurai residences
