Monkeys on a limb - 17th century painting by Sosen
- Title
- Monkeys on a limb - 17th century painting by Sosen
- Description
- A Japanese picture is not painted simply for the sake of representative effect; it is part of the decorative scheme. A Japanese never shows more than one picture or one set of pictures at a time. If he has a large collection, he keeps them in his fireproof storeroom, and gives to each in turn a temporary place in the alcove recess. As it hangs there the eye must find equal pleasure in regarding it from every part of the room.
