Shibata Zeshin (1807-1891)
Eagle in the Snow, a Japanese hanging scroll painting, Late Edo period - early Meiji era, 2nd half of the 19th century AD. The eagle had succeeded in catching what looks like a fox, but perhaps because the prey was too big, perhaps because it struggled too much, the animal managed to escape. The signature is all but hidden within the black ink of the cliff; it reads 'Zeshin'. The seal beneath reads 'Tairyûkyo'. H: 1098mm, W: 415mm. reg. no: AC 1950,1111,0.19.
