More about this artwork

36, 1905) by Kōno BaireiThis evocative woodblock print, crafted by the esteemed Meiji period artist Kōno Bairei, captures the delicate interplay between avian life and the rugged beauty of the natural world. At first glance, the viewer is drawn to the vivid depiction of a bird, its feathers rendered in striking detail and warm hues, suggesting the soft texture and fluid motion of its body. The bird is perched precariously yet gracefully on a rocky ledge, a visual testament to the resilience and adaptability of nature’s creatures.Surrounding the bird are intricately drawn leaves and blossoms, which not only complement the central figure but also enhance the composition's overall depth and balance. The fine lines and delicate shading of the foliage suggest a breezy, tranquil environment, contrasting with the solid, enduring quality of the rocks.Kōno Bairei’s mastery in kacho-e (bird-and-flower painting) is evident in his ability to convey both the fragility and the enduring strength of the natural world.
