I acquired an original Japanese scroll at an estate sale and am seeking a valuation, appraisal, and buyer for it. The scroll measures approximately 2 feet wide and 7.5 feet in height, featuring Emperor Jimmu, as shown in the attached pictures. The translation reveals that the piece was commissioned in 1940 for Japan's 2,600-year celebration, commemorating the anniversary of the founding of the Empire of Japan. According to imperial myth-history, Emperor Jimmu, descended from the Sun Goddess Amaterasu, established the "unbroken imperial line" in 660 BCE. I believe the artist is Kinoshita Itsuun (1884–1963), a calligraphy artist active in the early to mid-20th century, but I haven’t had the piece appraised to verify the seal and signature.
