Paulownia and Chrysanthemums: Sakai Hoitsu's botanical delicacy
In this composition, Sakai Hoitsu captures the subtle balance between the verticality of the paulownias and the roundness of the chrysanthemums, offering a harmony of lines and empty spaces. The delicate hues — pale yellows, tender greens, and touches of ochre — dialogue with a sober background that highlights each flower and leaf painted with a finesse characteristic of Japanese prints. The technique reveals a sensitivity to detail and mastery of contrast between flat surface and suggested depth, creating a contemplative atmosphere that is both serene and refined.
