Peonies and Butterfly - Hokusai

Katsushika Hokusai works with pink and green in this work with fine lines, which is originally a print. These colors, delicately shaded by gradations or radically contrasted by darker hues, bring volume and life to these peonies. A butterfly swirling around the flowers contributes to accentuate the idea of movement and makes the composition poetically animated. An elegant harmony subtly airy emerges from this touching painting, inspired by nature. The work reminds us of Peonies and Canary.
