Additional Information Image was scanned from color slide. Note: "Nihonga is literally Japanese painting. The term itself - enigmatic in its sound, terse in its blending of what is Japanese (Nihon) with what is painting (ga) - was not even a word until the later part of the nineteenth century, when it became necessary to distinguish the kind of Japanese painting that followed its own tradition from that [which] pursued a new course based on Western painting."--Nihonga: Transcending the Past, by Ellen P. Conant, with Foreword by James D. Burke, p. 7. Note: Original caption information provided as: "Nihonga Ptg. Yoson Ikeda B. Okayama 1895 ""Champ de riz apres la moisson"" Ptg.on paper 1984"
