Sitting Tiger by Maruyama Ōkyo

Sitting Tiger (1777)

Maruyama Ōkyo | Maruyama School | Ink and color on silk

A majestic tiger sits calmly, looking wise and powerful. Its beautiful stripes and watchful eyes make it look like a king!

Did you know? This tiger is painted on a hanging scroll, and a note inside its storage box lid, written by one of Ōkyo's descendants, says it is 'without doubt' a true work of 'my ancestor Okyo'!
