vintage japanese shikishi painting

The white horse holds particular significance in the New Year. Signs of good health and good luck, white horse ceremonies are held on January 7 each year. Why not make your own luck with this vintage shikishi painting. 

Hand painted and affixed to shikishi board, a specially prepared backing with subtle flecking and bold, gold trim that is traditionally used for Sumi ink painting, Shodo calligraphy, or watercolour illustration.

This shikishi comes inside a protective paper sleeve.
