Japan around 1800, slight accidents. H: 173 cm, L: 186 cm (68.1x73.2 inches)
The screen was used in the 18th Century
in the palaces of Japanese aristocrats. The Byobu had two functions: to partition an open space and to block evil spirits. The Japanese floral decoration of the 18th Century directly inspired the European movement which would create Art Nouveau based on the 3 Fs: Fauna, Flora, Feminine.
