Autumn - Canvas Naru inviting the viewer to pause

inviting the viewer to pause within a fleeting winter moment where nature and spirituality coexist in harmony

rails against his enemies

Ohara Koson's signature style transforms the peacock from a mere subject into a poetic expression of grace and tranquility

while the bold linear patterns add rhythm and movement

Autumn - Canvas Naru inviting the viewer to pauseby Taguchi Tomoki Taguchi Tomoki (active mid 19th century) was a Japanese woodblock artist best known for his rare book of prints, Yatsuo no Tsubaki (Eight Hills Camellia), created during the late Edo period. The book distilled everyday motifs and abstract forms into bold visual statements, blending restraint with striking design. In this piece, Tomoki renders an ornamental pattern in vivid red, its flowing shapes resembling stylized leaves or flames.
