Title: Shibata Beizo "Tomoshibi no Wa" F20 Original Oil Painting Member of the Japan Art Academy Yasui Prize Winner Major Work
Description: Shibata Beizo "Tomoshibi no Wa" F20 Original Oil Painting Framed
This is a portrait created by Shibata Beizo (1926–2006), a Western-style painter who was a member of the Japan Art Academy and a Yasui Prize winner.
On the back of the canvas, the title "Tomoshibi no Wa" and the name Shibata Beizo can be seen, and the signature is also confirmed in the lower left corner of the painting.
What is particularly striking about this work is the serene and clear gaze of the woman depicted in the center.
Not only from the front, but also when viewed from the left and right sides, you feel as if she is gazing at you, as if you can meet the character's eyes every time you move around the room, giving it a magical presence.
Although the photograph cannot fully convey it, the expression of the character, the texture of the white clothing, the deep background color, and the patterns using red and gold are all extremely impressive in the actual piece.
This is a large F20 work, so its presence is quite different from that of smaller pieces. It is recommended for decoration in living rooms, entrances, and of course, suitable for companies, reception rooms, offices, beauty salons, salons, hotels, shops, restaurants, and other spaces.
Shibata Beizo was born in Kyoto and studied under Suda Kunitaro. He won the Independent Prize in 1950 and the Yasui Prize in 1963. In 1994, he received the Japan Art Academy Prize for "Rakusei Sanka" and became a member of the Japan Art Academy. He is one of the representative painters of modern Japanese Western-style painting, known for works themed on people, animals, and life, with female portraits being an important theme.
This is a meticulously preserved work, and it is very splendid even in its framed state.
