Koson – Two Peacocks on Tree Branch | Japanese Woodblock

Ohara Koson captures the regal stillness of peacocks with characteristic restraint, their jewel-toned tail feathers cascading like living ornaments. The composition balances the birds’ ornate presence against sparse negative space, embodying the shin-hanga movement’s fusion of Western realism with ukiyo-e sensibility.
