A wooden torii stands half-hidden behind a dark pine at the right, its crossbeams showing through the branches. Behind it, ranks of pines fade into pale grey silhouettes across the misty hillside. A loose flock of small birds crosses the sky at the upper left, while three larger dark birds fly nearer: a pair above the treeline and one lower in the mist at the left. The artist’s signature and a red round seal sit at the lower right beside the torii post.
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.
