More about this artwork

"Keinen kachō gafu, Plate 28" is a captivating woodblock print by the esteemed Japanese artist Imao Keinen, crafted between 1891 and 1892. This piece is part of a series that beautifully portrays the rich and delicate harmony of flora and fauna inherent in the changing seasons of Japan. In this particular artwork, Keinen depicts a charming bird perched elegantly on a branch, illustrating his deft ability to capture the fine details and textures of both wildlife and plant life.The bird, marked by its striking black and white plumage and distinctive tuft on its head, exudes a sense of calm observance, its sharp eye gazing outward. It sits amongst lush green leaves and unripe fruits, possibly berries, that hang temptingly on the slender branches. The subtle gradation of greens and the textures of the leaves are rendered with exquisite precision, typical of Keinen's meticulous style. The overall composition reflects a serene moment in nature, evoking a sense of peace and admiration for the simple beauty of the natural world.This print is a fine example of the traditional Kimetsu style, where the elegance and simplicity speak volumes about the skill of the artist.
