This hanging scroll by Hirai Baisen (1889–1969) captures a tranquil winter view of the Kamo River in Kyoto, rendered in soft ink and muted pigments with refined brushwork. Snow blankets the bridge, rooftops, and distant mountain, while two figures cross quietly, evoking a sense of seasonal stillness and poetic solitude. Signed “Baisen” (楳仙) and sealed “Baisen” (某仙), the work reflects Baisen’s mastery of landscape composition and atmospheric nuance. A student of Takeuchi Seiho and active in both domestic and international exhibitions, Baisen was known for his detailed depictions of nature and elegant integration of traditional Kyoto aesthetics. This scroll is housed in its original double storage box (tomobako), underscoring its formal presentation and preservation.
