A green peacock fills the lower half, its eyed train trailing over the rocks, with a golden pheasant in red and orange beside it and a pair of mandarin ducks on the water below. Above them a gnarled pine hung with coral blossom, pink peonies, and small blue-and-white tits crossing an empty gold sky. Painted on silk by an artist of the Nagasaki school between 1800 and 1880.
That flat gold ground takes up a third of the picture and offers almost nothing to work with, so the birds go in first. Finished size 64 x 50cm.
Detailed birds and foliage provide landmarks, but the muted gold background and traditional painting style add moderate difficulty.
