Animals And Birds Colour Woodcut Far East Japanese Art Koson 1877 1945 Ohara The Oriental Arts

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning color woodcut print by the renowned Japanese artist, Ohara Koson (1877-1945). This exquisite work of art, a private collection treasure, showcases the beauty and intricacy of Ukiyo-e, a traditional Japanese genre of art that flourished during the Edo period. The print captures the essence of the Far East with its vibrant colors and intricate details. At the heart of the composition is a solitary cicada perched on a gnarled tree branch, its intricately patterned exoskeleton a testament to the natural world's intricate design. The cicada's large, expressive eyes seem to gaze intently into the distance, as if lost in thought or contemplation. The tree behind the cicada is rendered with equal care and attention, its leaves a lush green against the deep, rich brown of its trunk. The delicate branches weave around the cicada, creating a sense of harmony and balance between the two elements. Ohara Koson's mastery of the woodcut technique is evident in the intricate lines and bold colors that bring this scene to life. The artist's deft use of negative space and careful composition create a sense of depth and dimension, drawing the viewer into the image and inviting them to explore the intricacies of the natural world. This beautiful work of art is a testament to the enduring appeal of Japanese art and the beauty of the natural world. It is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the Far East and the timeless appeal of traditional art forms. Whether displayed in a private collection or admired in a gallery, "Cicada on Tree" is a work of art that continues to captivate and inspire.
