EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Two crows on a branch, 1927" by Ohara Koson transports us to the serene beauty of nature in early twentieth-century Japan. The image showcases two majestic crows perched gracefully on a delicate branch against a backdrop of vibrant colors. The artist's mastery of the colour woodcut technique brings life and depth to this stunning artwork. Part of the shin-hanga movement, which aimed to revive traditional Japanese art forms, this print exemplifies Koson's ability to blend tradition with innovation. The intricate calligraphy adorning the piece adds an element of elegance and poetry, enhancing our appreciation for both visual and written art. The composition captures the essence of winter, as evidenced by the barren trees in the background. Yet, there is warmth emanating from the sun-drenched scene that bathes everything in its golden glow. This juxtaposition creates a sense of tranquility and harmony within nature's cycle. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported into a world untouched by human presence. It reminds us to appreciate moments like these when nature reveals its true splendor without any interference or disruption. Displayed at Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, this print serves as a testament to Koson's artistic brilliance and his contribution to Japanese art history. Through his skillful portrayal of animals amidst their natural habitat, he invites us into their world and encourages us to cherish the wonders that surround us every day.
