"A black and white kitten, with a red bow around its neck, curiously approaches a porcelain bowl where goldfish are swimming. The scene is of absolute gentleness and poetry."

Context of the work

This work is signed by Ohara Koson (1877-1945), a master of shin-hanga and specialist in bird and flower prints (kacho-ga), who also produced magnificent depictions of cats.

The goldfish bowl (kingyo) is a recurring motif in Japanese summer art and culture, associated with luck, prosperity, and ephemeral beauty.

What do goldfish (kingyo) symbolize in Japanese culture?

Goldfish (kingyo) are associated with luck, prosperity, and ephemeral beauty in Japanese summer culture—a motif that Ohara Koson (1877-1945) here combines with the curiosity of a kitten.

Beautiful images deserve beautiful paper

The paper is an uncoated matte 170 gsm. Its surface stays slightly fibrous, the ink sinks in, the light spreads across it. Colors keep their depth, as on the page of a book.

It is FSC certified, so it comes from sustainably managed forests, and printed as close to you as possible to shorten transport.

Hanging a piece is not the same as seeing it once. It stays there, you find it again in passing, and the day pauses for a second. It is a moment you give yourself, and offer to those who live with you.
