Cherry Blossoms. By the great masters of Japanese prints.

A true celebration of cherry blossoms, this box set, accompanied by an explanatory booklet, displays in an accordion format more than sixty works by the greatest masters of Japanese printmaking. The sakura , whose flower has become the emblem of the country, offers at the beginning of spring a grandiose flowering, in subtle variations of color, which spreads like a vaporous cloud over the entire country, and which gave rise to an ancestral ritual, the hanami . From Hokusai to Hiroshige, by way of Keibun, Bairei and Hasui, these prints highlight the intensity and the transience of this unique moment, an occasion for meditation with family or friends, where everyone is invited to meditate on the impermanence of things, to contemplate nature to find wisdom there.
