Birds at full moon (1900 - 1936) by Ohara Koson. Giclee Print on Museum Quality Matte Paper. Premium Wood Framed Wall Art.

Ohara Koson's "Birds at Full Moon" is a masterful example of the shin-hanga movement, a revitalization of traditional Japanese woodblock printing that flourished in the early 20th century. Koson, born in 1877, was a prominent figure in this movement, celebrated for his exquisite depictions of birds and flowers. His work is characterized by a delicate balance of realism and stylization, capturing the ephemeral beauty of nature with a serene and contemplative approach.

In "Birds at Full Moon," Koson employs a subtle yet sophisticated color palette, with muted tones and gentle gradations that evoke a sense of tranquility and harmony. The piece features a pair of birds silhouetted against a luminous full moon, a subject that reflects the artist's deep appreciation for the natural world and its transient moments of beauty. Koson's technique involves meticulous carving and printing, with an emphasis on fine details and texture, which bring the birds and their moonlit environment to life.

Philosophically, Koson's work is rooted in the Japanese aesthetic principles of mono no aware, an awareness of the impermanence of things, and wabi-sabi, the beauty of imperfection. "Birds at Full Moon" is not only a testament to Koson's skill and vision but also a significant contribution to the shin-hanga movement. The original piece is held in various collections worldwide, including esteemed institutions such as the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences with its timeless elegance and profound simplicity.
