Brush Holder with Fisherman and Traveler
Cylindrical red-brown wooden brush holder with a wide mouth and slightly tapering body. The top and bottom edges are flat and smooth. The body features intricate carvings depicting two distinct scenes. The left side shows a bearded man sitting on a rocky outcrop, looking at a small bird on a branch; he holds a long-stemmed object. To his right, another figure stands behind a tree, looking down at a fish on a rocky surface below. The right side shows a man sitting on a rocky ledge, facing another man walking towards him with a walking stick; trees and foliage are behind them. The background is plain gray, with the brush holder casting a subtle shadow. Brush Holder with Fisherman and Traveler by unknown artist.
