Golden Pheasant in the Snow 1890 - 1910

"Golden Pheasant in the Snow," a woodblock print from the 1890s to 1910s, is an example of the work of renowned Japanese artist Ito Jakuchu (1716-1800). The detailed depiction of the bird, with its brilliant plumage and intricate patterns, is a testament to Jakuchu's mastery of the woodblock print technique. The pheasant is rendered in vivid colors against a dark background, contrasting with the sparse landscape elements of snow and bamboo. The intricate details and striking colors of the print highlight the beauty of nature and the artist's skilled craftsmanship.
