Description: This is a circular footed bowl that captures a serene landscape scene. The dominant feature is a towering tree, its leaves painted in varied shades of green, suggesting a meticulous observation of natural light. The tree trunk is depicted with brown hues that show signs of age and wisdom. To the right, we see more distant trees, providing depth to the composition. The Morimura Brothers were Japanese businessmen who played a pivotal role in the export of traditional Japanese goods, including porcelain, to the West during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Founded in 1876 by Ichizaemon Morimura VI and his brother Toyo, the Morimura Brothers company initially dealt with general trading activities. Recognizing the demand for fine porcelain in the West, they established a porcelain factory in the village of Noritake, near Nagoya, Japan, in 1904. This factory became the foundation for what would later be known as the Noritake Company, renowned worldwide for its high-quality porcelain wares. The "M" inside a wreath mark, symbolizing the Morimura name, is one of the early hallmarks used by the company on its exported goods.
