This elegant Japanese hanging scroll by Wakabayashi Shokei (1858–1938) features a powerful yet serene composition of a rising sun behind a majestic pine tree, rendered in expressive sumi ink and accented with a vivid red orb. The pine, symbol of longevity and resilience, stands firm in the foreground, its textured trunk and sweeping needles painted with confident brushwork. Behind it, the rising sun casts a warm glow, evoking renewal and quiet strength—an image deeply rooted in Japanese seasonal and spiritual aesthetics.
Wakabayashi Shokei, born in Bingo Fukuyama, trained under Fujii Shōrin and later became a pupil of Suzuki Shōnen of the Maruyama school. He was a prominent figure in the Osaka art world, known for his refined landscapes and mastery of traditional techniques. The scroll bears the signature “Shokei hitsu” (松渓筆) and seal “Wakabayashi Shokei” (若林松渓), and is accompanied by its original box (tomobako), affirming its authenticity and careful preservation.
