He received a first-class gold medal at the Russo-Japanese War Victory Commemorative Exhibition and was selected four times for the Bunten Exhibition.

The bird’s poised stillness and the gentle arc of the branch create a harmonious rhythm, while the delicate touches of color in the blossoms enhance the sense of seasonal freshness. Subtle gradations and confident brushwork reveal a painterly sensitivity to both form and atmosphere, giving the composition an elegant clarity. The scroll bears the signature “Shūka” (秋華), reflecting the artist’s assured handling of bird‑and‑flower subjects. It is accompanied by its original box (Tomobako), indicating careful preservation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhole dimensions: 14\" W x 79.4\" H \/ 35.6cm x 201.9cm\u003cbr\u003eInside dimensions: 10.6\" W x 45.9\" H \/ 27cm x 116.6cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Silk\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Handpainted\u003cbr\u003eRoller ends: Pottery\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 560g including Original Box (Tomobako)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAntique items have originally crease, stain, damage, and more.
