Up for auction today is a turn of the Century Japanese watercolor painting on paper. The artist (Shumin) signed his name in the lower right hand corner. This is a fantastic painting of the great Mt. Fuji. It is about 13.25" inches high and 19.8" inches long and it is NOT laid down. In very good condition for age. |

| Artist Bio: |
Shumin Ota (1884 – 15 May 1950) was a Japanese painter. His work was part of the painting event in the art competition at the 1936 Summer Olympics [from Wiki]. May have travelled or emigrated to Canada, because watercolour scenes of Canada exist.
