This painting by Kawabata Gyokushō, titled *Landscape*, depicts a breathtaking view of a mountain range and a river winding through a valley. Gyokushō (1842-1913) was a prominent Japanese artist known for his landscape paintings, often featuring mountain scenes. The delicate brushstrokes and soft hues of the painting create a sense of tranquility and harmony, characteristic of the *shan shui* style of Chinese landscape painting that influenced Japanese art. The piece, completed between 1887 and 1892, is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
