Bairei hyakucho gafu. Ten Pl.19 by Kono Bairei
Plate 19 from Kono Bairei's Hundred Birds series places a perched bird at the edge of implied foliage, the figure caught mid-turn as if alerted by an unseen sound. The composition leans into asymmetry — a hallmark of Meiji kacho-e — with open space counterbalancing the weight of the bird's form. Ink tones shift from dense shadow at the wing to near-translucence along the breast, a quiet demonstration of Bairei's mastery over gradation.
Printed in our Berlin studio on museum-grade fine art paper with archival pigment inks, this archival fine art print renders the fine tonal shifts and precise brushline of the original with faithful sharpness and depth.
