"The moon, the plum branches, the fading night."

History of the artwork

This painting by So Shizan, an 18th-century Japanese artist, depicts plum blossoms illuminated by the moon. It is a recurring theme in classical Japanese poetry and art: the nocturnal blooming of the plum, a symbol of virtue and perseverance in the winter cold. The contrast between the delicate flowers and the dark night creates an image of great melancholic beauty, in the vein of Chinese literati painting adapted by Japanese masters.

What does the plum tree blooming at night symbolize in classical Japanese art?

The plum tree blooming in the middle of a winter night symbolizes virtue and perseverance in the face of adversity - a recurring theme in Japanese poetry that So Shizan illustrates here in the 18th century, in the style of Chinese literati painting.

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 eco-friendly paper 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.
