JAPANESE CEILING PANEL

Paintings like this are usually found in Japanese shrines and temples. The artist used historical techniques and natural paints to express the botanical art. The subdued colours achieve harmony and sprinkled pieces of gold foil create an effect of distance. The circled falcon feathers at the bottom is a family crest for the Marumi Chigai Takanoha clan.
