Long-tailed Tit on Maple Branch Japanese Traditional Wall Art

This delicate ink wash painting (likely a Japanese sumi-e or a similar East Asian style) depicts a small bird, a long-tailed tit, perched on a bare maple branch. The bird is rendered with fine brushstrokes, capturing its distinctive long tail and compact body. Several maple leaves, tinged with autumnal yellow and orange, are scattered along the branch, suggesting the season. The overall composition is minimalist and elegant, emphasizing the natural beauty of the bird and its environment through simple lines and washes of ink. The inscription in the bottom left corner is likely the artist’s signature or a poetic inscription related to the subject.
