"Painting of the Sun, Moon, and Five Peaks," Unknown Korean Artist, 19th or early 20th Centuries.
The product of an unknown artist from Korea's Joseon Dynasty, this painting is also known as a Irworobongdo, and normally was a folding screen that stood behind the Emperor's throne, as a symbol of his majesty and power. The actual meaning of the symbolism here is forgotten and can only be guessed at. It's worth noting that the concept of five peaks has long been important to the royal houses of Korea.
Many of these were produced in the heyday of the Joseon Dynasty, but today only about 20 are extant, none of which are signed. While frequently done as multipanel folding screens, this particular example is done as a single panel. Versions of this always had the sun, moon, and five peaks, but could vary in details, color scheme, and arrangement.
From the National Palace Museum of Korea, Seoul.

"Illustrated Legends of the Kitano Tenjin Shrine," Unknown Artist, late 13th century.
This scroll painting, from the Kamakura period, depicts a scene from the legendary life of the Shinto deity Tenjin, who originally was a poet, scholar, and statesman named Sugawara Michizane (845–903), who was slandered at court and died in exile.
Various natural disasters occurred after his death, which in Shinto belief indicates a restless and wronged spirit. In 942 his spirit somehow indicated he wanted to be honored at a shrine in Kyoto, where he was deified as Tenjin, a god of agriculture and a patron of the wrongfully accused. His worship later declared him a patron of literature and music.
This scroll shows how a dragon came out of the body of the minister who slandered Michizane, and declared he was wrongfully accused. The minister then dropped dead.

"Woman Pulling Giant Aubergines from a Tree," Unknown Artist, probably Bengali, 19th century.
Here we have a watercolor done in the Kalighat style, from an area of the Bengal region of India....but it's unclear if this is actually from there or only done in the style. There's no provenance on this work and the identity and nationality of the artist are unknown.
Still...gardeners are harvesting their yields now, so this whimsical image is appropriate.
