Blossoming Cherry on a Moonlit Night (1932) by Ohara Koson. Giclee Print on Museum Quality Matte Paper. Premium Wood Framed Wall Art.

Ohara Koson's "Blossoming Cherry on a Moonlit Night" (1932) is a quintessential example of the artist's mastery in capturing the ephemeral beauty of nature through the traditional Japanese art form of ukiyo-e. Koson, born in 1877 in Kanazawa, Japan, emerged as a prominent figure in the shin-hanga movement, which sought to revive and modernize ukiyo-e in the early 20th century. His works are celebrated for their delicate balance of traditional techniques and innovative approaches to color and composition.

In "Blossoming Cherry on a Moonlit Night," Koson employs a refined use of color and line to depict a serene nocturnal landscape where cherry blossoms are bathed in the ethereal glow of moonlight. The piece exemplifies Koson's philosophical approach, which often centers on the transient beauty of the natural world, inviting viewers to pause and appreciate the fleeting moments of splendor that life offers.

Koson's style is characterized by a meticulous attention to detail and a harmonious blend of color, achieved through woodblock printing techniques. The subject matter—cherry blossoms—symbolizes the impermanence of life, a recurring theme in Japanese art and culture. This artwork holds significant importance in the art world as it encapsulates the essence of the shin-hanga movement. The original print is currently held in various private collections and esteemed institutions, continuing to inspire and captivate audiences worldwide.
