Considering the photos, this item is:

A Japanese silk screen, panel screen decorated with natural scenery (四十雀 (Shijûkara)), a typical Japanese symbol of protection, Chinese-style. It is in good condition. The motifs were often painted on silk.

Screens were used as diplomatic gifts. ‘From the late medieval period onward, they were sent in considerable numbers to China and to Korea.

Many well-known motives were often copied and also provided with the original signature. 
That is why it is difficult even to assign the motifs or signature exactly but according to the details this is from circa 20th century.
