The focal point of the image is a Brown-Eared Bulbul (Hiyodori), perched delicately on a branch of a plum tree. Its vibrant colors and intricate details are brought to life through ink and color on paper, showcasing the artist's exceptional talent. The bulbul seems to be calling out, its song echoing through the country landscape captured within this hanging scroll. The branches of the plum tree frame the bird perfectly, adding depth and dimension to this exquisite portrait. As we admire this piece from Kano Shoei, we can't help but appreciate how it represents both nature and wildlife during a significant period in Japanese history.
