石香 Sekiko Japanese art kakejiku kakemono wall hanging scroll / Moon Peeking From Behind Clouds RE141

Age: 1914 August / 大正甲寅八月
with signature and seal 'Sekiko' 石香

This hanging scroll depicts a serene and atmospheric scene of the moon partially veiled by drifting clouds, rendered with subtle ink washes and restrained brushwork that emphasize silence and depth. The softly emerging moon evokes themes of impermanence, quiet contemplation, and the beauty found in what is only partially revealed, a sensibility closely aligned with traditional East Asian aesthetics. The work is signed and sealed “Sekikō” (石香) and is dated August 1914 (Taishō 3), placing it in the early Taishō period. The composition relies on negative space and tonal gradation rather than descriptive detail, allowing the viewer’s imagination to complete the scene. This scroll represents a refined example of early 20th-century Japanese ink painting and is well suited for tokonoma display or a contemplative art collection.
