Kōno Bairei's "Tiger" (1913) is a masterful example of the artist's profound ability to capture the essence of nature with elegance and precision. As a prominent figure in the late Edo and early Meiji periods, Bairei was renowned for his contributions to the kachō-ga genre, which focuses on bird-and-flower paintings. His work is celebrated for its delicate balance of realism and stylization, a hallmark of the Japanese nihonga style that he helped popularize.

Born in 1844 in Kyoto, Bairei was a student of the Maruyama-Shijō school, where he honed his skills in traditional Japanese painting techniques. His artistic philosophy was deeply rooted in the appreciation of nature, often seeking to convey the transient beauty of the natural world. In "Tiger," Bairei employs meticulous brushwork and a restrained color palette, emphasizing the tiger's grace and power while simultaneously capturing its serene presence.

The piece is a testament to Bairei's ability to blend observation with artistic expression, creating a work that is both lifelike and imbued with a sense of tranquility. The subject matter, a solitary tiger, symbolizes strength and majesty, reflecting the artist's admiration for nature's grandeur.

Currently, this exquisite piece is held in a private collection, its significance enduring as a quintessential representation of Japanese naturalistic art. Bairei's "Tiger" continues to inspire and influence artists worldwide, underscoring the timeless appeal of his artistic vision.
