EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print "Birds and Plants, 1900-16" by Ohara Koson transports viewers to the enchanting world of early 20th-century Japan. This exquisite colour woodcut is a testament to the artist's mastery of the shin-hanga movement, which sought to revive traditional Japanese printmaking techniques. In this artwork, Koson skillfully combines elements of nature with delicate calligraphy. The composition features a branch adorned with vibrant flowers and leaves, providing a serene backdrop for two birds perched gracefully on its twigs. The intricate details in their feathers and expressive eyes bring these avian creatures to life. Koson's use of color adds depth and richness to the scene. Soft hues blend harmoniously, creating an atmosphere that evokes tranquility and serenity. Each stroke of his brush captures the essence of Japanese aesthetics - simplicity, elegance, and reverence for nature. This print not only showcases Koson's artistic prowess but also reflects Japan's deep connection with its natural surroundings. It serves as a reminder of our own symbiotic relationship with the environment and invites us to appreciate the beauty found in every corner of our world. "Birds and Plants" is an extraordinary piece that transcends time; it continues to captivate audiences today just as it did when it was first created over a century ago. Its presence in Rijksmuseum Amsterdam allows visitors from around the globe to experience firsthand this remarkable fusion of artistry and nature from one of Japan's most celebrated artists.
