Takeuchi Seihō1928

In the left screen, Seiho depicted an old willow tree waving in the strong winds and a black kite clinging tightly to trunk and enduring the wind. In the right screen, a slender willow tree and a small wagtail gently waving in the wind are painted. Thin willow branches forming an arch in the right screen strengthen the sense of strong winds. Seiho succeeded in expressing the landscape after the rain, the branches and leaves waving in the wind, and the bird's delicate movements, with his excellent skill in portrayal and composition.
