WRITTEN IN FRENCH

A true celebration of spring, this box set, accompanied by an explanatory booklet, displays in an accordion format more than sixty works by the greatest masters of printmaking.
If the Japanese maintain an intense relationship with nature and the seasons, spring is one of the most spectacular, both for its symbolism of renewal and for its spiritual force.

From Hokusai to Hiroshige via Harunobu or Utamaro, each of these prints reveals the virtuosity with which the artists transcribe the infinite play of blooms, but also the sensitive expression of a poetry of the ephemeral.
Landscapes adorned with the tender green of emerging leaves, cherry trees in bloom enhanced with all shades of pink, cascades of purple wisteria and delicately scented wild roses, walks in the shade of lush plum trees: each print exalts the beauty of nature in full metamorphosis.
