    It is a screen. I do not think it is older than 2nd half of the 20th c. Unfortunately I cannot help with id of the scene, maybe a scene of Heiji Monogatari?

    What an interesting piece of art, @Mario

    I can't figure out what is going on here!

    Very nice screen. I agree with the others, it was probably relatively new when stored.
    My first thought too, with the cart and warriors. But it could be any of a number of stories.

    We don't have a translator for Japanese.
    Beautiful, and also from the Heiji Monogatari. But it could be from another story as well, or from another episode in Heiji Monogatari.

    It's all a bit chaotic. One horse has gone bananas and the fellow on the right-hand panel is running down the hill whilst the bullock or ox or whatever pulling the wagon has been totally left to his own devices.

    I was thinking the same thing. I only find that website so far when Googling the “master Artists name” Gold leaf Factory art?
    But there were other depictions by this same artist on that site.
