Hello Ronald, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry and for your patience. Considering the photos, this item is: A kakemono (掛物, "hanging thing"), more commonly referred to as a kakejiku (掛軸, "hung scroll"), is a Japanese hanging scroll used to display and exhibit paintings and calligraphy inscriptions and designs mounted usually with silk fabric edges on a flexible backing, so that it can be rolled for storage. The motifs were often painted on silk. In this case, it is a flower. Many well-known motives were often copied and also provided with the original signature, in this case, there is an unread signature and red seal. PROVENANCE: Unknown. $200 - 400*
