Koson: Birds and Blossoms

Revel in the start of summer with a selection of prints from Ronin Gallery by Koson (AKA Shoson or Hoson), Japan’s early 20th century master of kacho-e. Softly colored and elegantly rendered, Koson's prints celebrate nature as a meeting of sensual delights and lyrical expressions of emotion. The tradition of kacho-e, which is most simply the depiction of flora and fauna, has a long visual and literary history. Imbued with metaphorical significance beyond their physical beauty, these prints include specific pairings of birds, insects and flowers.
