A woodblock print by Ohara Koson, 'Jays on Berry Tree' depicts two Bohemian waxwings perched on a berry tree branch. The print showcases Koson's skill in capturing the delicate balance between naturalism and decorative design.
Ohara Koson (1877-1945) was a Japanese artist renowned for his bird-and-flower paintings (kachō-e) in the Shin-Hanga style. This print depicts two Bohemian waxwings perched on a slender branch of a berry tree. The birds are rendered with careful attention to detail, from the soft, mottled plumage to the distinctive crests. One bird faces left, its body a mix of browns and greys, with a flash of orange on its wing. The other bird, slightly behind, is lighter in tone, its head turned as if listening. The branch, sparsely adorned with red berries and autumnal leaves, adds a touch of colour to the composition. The background fades from a dark grey at the top to a lighter, almost ethereal tone below, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere. Koson's skill in capturing the delicate balance between naturalism and decorative design is evident in this work, which exemplifies the Shin-Hanga movement's revival of traditional Japanese art forms with modern sensibilities.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
