This evocative mid-century Japanese shadow box artwork dates from the post-war period and showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of layered glass picture-making. Composed of multiple hand-painted and printed glass panels, the scene unfolds in remarkable depth, drawing the eye through a tranquil riverside village of timber houses, pine trees and distant hills. The carefully staggered layers create a striking three-dimensional effect that shifts beautifully with the light. Housed in its original period frame, this decorative piece reflects the fascination with Japanese aesthetics that swept through interiors in the 1950s and 60s. A quietly captivating artwork, perfect for refined, character-led spaces.
