1797 1858 1830 1858 Ando Blossom Blossoms Branch Cock Hiroshige Long Magpie Plum Printed Shows Tailed
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the serene world of 19th-century Japanese art with this stunning print by Andō Hiroshige, a renowned artist of the ukiyo-e style. Titled "Ume ni onagadori," or "Plum Blossom and Magpie (Long-tailed Cock Onagadori)," this beautiful piece showcases Hiroshige's mastery of color and composition.
The scene depicts a majestic magpie perched atop a branch heavy with plum blossoms, its long tail feathers flowing behind it like a regal cloak. The delicate petals of the plum blossoms are rendered in soft pink hues, while the magpie's sleek black feathers provide striking contrast against the gentle background. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if time has stood still beneath the branches.
Hiroshige's use of woodblock printing techniques adds texture and depth to the image, giving it an almost three-dimensional quality. This print is not only a testament to his skill as an artist but also a window into Japan's rich cultural heritage during the Edo period.
Created between 1830 and 1858, this print is part of Liszt Collection's impressive archive of Japanese art. It serves as a reminder that even in times past, beauty was found in simplicity and harmony with nature.
