This woodblock print, created by the renowned Japanese artist Toyota Hokkei (1780-1850), depicts two peacocks perched on a branch, with a waterfall cascading in the background. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the peacocks' feathers, along with the delicate rendering of the waterfall and surrounding foliage, exemplify Hokkei's mastery of the ukiyo-e style. The presence of the red pillow in the foreground adds a touch of whimsy and emphasizes the artist's ability to capture the beauty of everyday life. This print exemplifies the artistic tradition of depicting nature's splendor in Japanese art, making it a captivating piece for art enthusiasts.
