The story behind the motif
Poster featuring Willow and Cherry by the Japanese artist Kamisaka Sekka. The motif was created in 1909–10 and forms part of Flowers of a Hundred Worlds, also known as Momoyogusa, a series first distributed sheet by sheet and later published as illustrated albums.
Sekka revitalized the decorative Rinpa tradition for a modern audience. In the image, the willow’s long leaves and the cherry tree’s pale blossoms fall across the warm background in a soft, rhythmic movement. The original is a color woodblock print in which gold and silver are used to enhance the image’s luminosity and decorative character.
Artist: Kamisaka Sekka (1866–1942) | Created: 1909–10.
Frame not included.
