Moonlit Evening
Kawai Gyokudō1913
Adachi Museum of Art
Yasugi, Shimane, Japan
Exhibited at the 7th Bunten Exhibition, the work was well received. Bathed in moonlight, a fisherman and his children hurry home over the wooden bridge one spring evening. The painting, filled with pastoral overtones, is at one with Gyokudo’s gentle disposition and his peaceful view of nature.
