Description : Thursday, 1 October 2009 This painting was purchased by my mother while she was living in Sendai from 1935-1938. It is larger painting measuring approximately 4.5 inches by nearly 12 inches. Not much is known about pre-war Japanese painters since a much of Japan's history was destroyed during WWII. I do not know if S. Niimi survived the war to continue painting. Though my mother lived in Sendai, she frequently traveled about the country to Tokyo, Yokohama, and Kobe for example. Hence, I am not sure exactly where she purchased this watercolor.
