Description
These intricate details of spring and summer flowers are from an 18th-century Japanese paper screen by artist Watanabe ShikÅ.
Rinpa is a leading historical school of Japanese painting, established in 17th-century Kyoto, whose artists were known for working in a range of formats, notably screens, fans, hanging scrolls and kimono textiles. The design on our cover shows a section of a screen with various types of blooms often believed to follow the ancient Japanese language of flowers.
