| Japanese Scrolls & Screen Paintings Calendar, Wall, Pomegranate
Literature, allegory, and religious iconography are subtly interpreted in these sumptuous wall hangings and movable panels - the latter designed to alter the inner proportions of the traditional Japanese house according to the owners' needs. Ink, watercolor, and gilt are used in depictions of wildlife, flower arrangements, and human activities - especially the important pastime of admiring cherry trees in blossom. Scenes that brought peace on the seventeenth-century admirer can have the same contemplative effect on the viewer today. This 2006 Wall calendar was published by Pomegranate.
