This vibrant polychrome woodblock print, titled "Dried Cuttle-Fish and Plum Blossoms, early 19th century" captures the essence of Japanese artistry during the Edo period. Created by Hokuba Chou, a renowned artist from the artistic school of Arisaka Teisai, this piece showcases his mastery in depicting nature's beauty. The print features a delicate balance between aquatic life and floral elements. The dried cuttle-fish gracefully intertwines with blooming plum blossoms, symbolizing the harmony between land and sea. The intricate details of each element are brought to life through ink and color on paper technique. Dating back to the 19th century, this artwork represents an important part of Japan's cultural heritage.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly houses this exquisite piece as part of their collection. Hokuba Chou's skillful use of color adds depth and dimension to this still-life composition. The vivid hues bring out the natural beauty found in both flora and fauna while capturing the viewer's attention with its striking contrast.
