At full flowering say a prayer in front of the flowers

Celebration of spring (haru in Japanese, 春), this book makes Japanese prints talk with the poetry of Matsuo Bashô (1644-1694).

In the spring of Japan, it is the blooms that we will admire and inspire artists and poets: plum, cherry, azalea, glycines, hortensias...

Reflecting impermanence, the seasons are at the heart of Japanese culture and art.
