This elegant package features works by the greatest masters of the Japanese woodblock, printed in a special format that allows for the perfect display of these sublime scenes.
More than just a pleasure ground, the Japanese garden is a spiritual space where each element—plants, stones, water, sound, movement—has special symbolism. Every manner of garden scene is included in this lovely collection: Zen gardens designed as miniature landscapes, “tea gardens” adorned with stone lanterns, spring vistas bursting with peonies and wisteria, strolling gardens ablaze with cherry blossoms in spring or glowing Japanese maples in autumn, water gardens dotted with irises and lotuses, the most sacred of all flowers.
From Hokusai to Hiroshige, Utamaro to Harunobu, the classic scenes included in this stunning collection showcase the inspired beauty of Japanese gardens—places of quiet meditation and serene contemplation that bear witness to a deep bond with the natural world.
This beautiful and refined collection of classic prints includes an informative booklet packaged together in a charming slipcase, making an ideal gift for gardeners and nature lovers as well as anyone interested in the art and culture of Japan.
