This large hanging scroll by Suzuki Kason (鈴木華邨, 1860–1919) presents a majestic peacock perched on a pine tree, rendered with exquisite detail and vibrant coloration. The iridescent blues and greens of the plumage, especially the elaborate tail feathers with eye-like motifs, are balanced by the textured pine needles and soft background tones, creating a composition that radiates elegance and serenity. Kason, active during the Meiji and Taisho periods, began his artistic training in the Yosai school of figure painting, later incorporating stylistic elements from the Tosa school and ukiyo-e traditions of the Shijō school. His mature style is especially celebrated in kachōga (flower-and-bird painting), where he combined classical refinement with a modern sensibility. Signed and sealed “Kason” (華邨), this scroll is accompanied by a box, preserving a work that exemplifies the grace and technical mastery of late 19th-century Japanese painting. It stands as a testament to Kason’s ability to harmonize decorative beauty with natural realism, making it a compelling piece for collectors and connoisseurs of Nihonga.
