Japanese Buddhist Painting Shakamuni Gautama Buddha
After 6 years asceticism, Gautama Buddha decided to come out from the snowy mountains to seek after his own way to get enlightenment. He realized that a long practice of asceticism was not the way to satori (enlightenment). Sealed Sesshū. Sesshū Tōyō (1420-1506) was the most prominent Japanese master of ink wash painting during Muromachi – Sengoku period (the Warring States period) in Japan. He was influenced by Chinese Song Dynasty landscape paintings and traveled to Ming Dynasty in China in mid 15th Century, where he was also recognized as an outstanding artist.

The painting and the mounting are in good condition consistent with age. The painting has been restored sometime in the past. It comes with paulownia wood storage box.

Scroll: 18 3/4” x 62 5/8” (47.5cm x 159.0cm)
