From Brushstrokes to Birds: Maruyama Ōkyo, Geese Over a Beach

Join us as we examine this four-paneled screen painting by Maruyama Ōkyo, the eighteenth-century artist who made realism a part of Japanese art. We discuss how Ōkyo used negative space to depict geese taking flight and how he evoked the feeling of a chilly morning on the seashore. We also muse on the painting’s original use as a sliding door and what the rest of the room may have looked like.
