Tsubaki Chinzan

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The painting depicts a vertical composition on a beige background. A brown border with a gold pattern frames the artwork. The artwork features a bird perched on a branch with blue-green leaves and pink flowers at the bottom. Above the bird, a gray and white rock formation is visible. Further up, another branch with blue-green leaves and a yellow flower is shown. The upper right corner contains vertical black Japanese characters. Two small red seals are present, one near the bottom and one near the middle right. The artist's name, Tsubaki Chinzan, and the title, "Rock and Autumn Flowers," are associated with the painting.
