This is an authentic Japanese Tako, kite from mid. 1900.
This Tako is a traditional handcrafted kite with traditional style paintings. The paintings on the kites (or tako-e) are heavily influenced by the ukiyo-e painters of Edo. Use of wide, powerful brush strokes in equally strong colors such as red, black, and green are predominant in the Tako-e paintings.
