Beschreibung

This hanging scroll features an owl, portrayed in a tranquil moonlit scene. Against the glow of a full moon, a single bird rests on a branch, its silhouette calm and watchful. Even the leaves and twigs carry a soft, subdued radiance, as if gently lit from within.

In Japan, the owl is cherished as an auspicious bird believed to ward off hardship and invite good fortune. This meaning is tied to a playful linguistic association: fukuro, the Japanese pronunciation of owl, echoes the meaning of phrases like “good luck comes” and “no hardship,” making the owl a symbol of protection and ease. 

Because owls can turn their heads nearly 270 degrees, they are also admired for clear sight and foresight, creatures that “see all around” and therefore avoid misfortune. In the West, the owl has long been called the “sage of the forest,” a guardian of wisdom and learning. These shared traditions make the owl an especially fitting emblem for academic success, sound judgment, and thriving business. With its timeless subject and luminous palette, this scroll can be displayed year-round as a graceful talisman of good luck.

The artist, Sato Junkichi, was born in 1976 in Tokushima Prefecture and is a contemporary Japanese painter known for bird-and-flower works, landscapes, haiga (haiku painting), and portraiture. He has been selected for the Nisshun Exhibition and has participated in many group shows. As a director of the Bokusai-kai (Ink and Color Painting Association), he is recognized for his confident technique and sensitive handling of nature.
