A cherry branch with pink five-petalled blossoms, deep pink buds and red-brown leaves reaches across the right of the sheet from a lichen-spotted trunk. Behind it Mount Fuji’s white cone rises above layered blue mountains, against a sky shading from green at the top to warm gold at the horizon. The artist’s brushed signature with a date inscription and a red seal sit at the lower right.
Ohara Koson (1877–1945) was the leading bird-and-flower (kachō-ga) artist of the shin-hanga movement. Trained in Kanazawa and Tokyo in the Shijō painting tradition, he designed prints from around 1900, first for export publishers and from 1926 for Watanabe Shōzaburō under the name Shōson. Herons in snow, crows on a branch, goldfish and sparrows are drawn with a naturalist’s precision and printed with soft gradations and embossed feathers. His prints are held by the Rijksmuseum, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
