Windy Landscape with Sailboat, mid-1400s. Japan, Muromachi period (1392-1573). Hanging scroll; ink on paper; image: 83.2 x 30.2 cm (32 3/4 x 11 7/8 in.); overall: 160.7 x 46 cm (63 1/4 x 18 1/8 in.). Windy Landscape depicts the humble waterside retreat of an official retired from government service. For government officials, retreating from the city to a remote locale was the ideal retirement, though difficult to attain. In this scroll the retiree gazes out over the watery expanse past the sailboat to the mist-covered mountain in the far distance. The artist has achieved this depth of composition through carefully placed brushstrokes and ink washes.
