• Takeuchi Seihō (1864–1942) was a painter who contributed greatly to the innovation of Japanese painting. He combined traditional techniques with Western realism, and was known as a master of animal painting. His representative works include "Striped Cat," and he was awarded the Order of Culture in 1937.

• Takeuchi Seiho's "Sparrow's Inn" depicts a sparrow inside a gourd, and is imbued with his outstanding sketching skills and deep love for animals. It expresses not only the shape but also the sense of life and the sounds of the birds' cries, giving a sense of harmony with nature and the workings of life. The themes of "the beauty of living" and "coexistence with nature" are expressed.

High-definition art painting (hand-colored complementary colors)

The work is printed on a Shin-ken-bon (High quality printing paper) using cutting-edge giclee printing techniques adopted by famous art museums around the world to produce replicas, and the final finish is hand-colored with complementary colors to create a realistic look. It is weather-resistant and not easily decomposed by light or ozone in the air, so the color tone is less likely to change over time and the beauty will not change.
