This six-panel screen, *Famous Views of Sagano (top) and Famous Views of Uji (bottom)*, created in 1560 by the prominent Japanese artist Kanō Eitoku, showcases the breathtaking landscapes of Sagano and Uji in Japan. The meticulously rendered details, vibrant colors, and gold leaf background are characteristic of Eitoku's *Kanō* style, which was the dominant artistic style of the Azuchi-Momoyama period in Japan. Eitoku's use of perspective creates a sense of depth and grandeur, while the overall composition evokes a sense of peace and tranquility. The screen is a stunning example of Japanese landscape painting and serves as a testament to the artistry of Kanō Eitoku.
