Flowering wisteria 

Ohara Koson's *Flowering Wisteria* is a beautiful example of the artist's signature style of *shin-hanga*, or "new prints". A noted artist in the *ukiyo-e* tradition, Koson created this woodcut depicting a single, delicately rendered branch of wisteria flowers. The soft lines and pale colors characteristic of *shin-hanga* create a serene and elegant atmosphere. Koson's prints, known for their depictions of the natural world, remain popular with art lovers today.
