Ito Jakuchu

• Ito Jakuchu (1716–1800) was a painter from the mid-Edo period who is known for his original paintings of flowers and birds, using vivid colors and detailed depictions. Born into a merchant family in Kyoto, he retired at the age of 40 to devote himself to painting. His works are characterized by their vivid depictions of plants and animals, such as his masterpiece "Dobutsusai-e."

Old Pine and Peacock

• Ito Jakuchu’s Old Pine and Peacock is a celebrated kachōga (bird-and-flower painting) depicting an ancient pine with a magnificent peacock. The bird’s feathers are rendered in exquisite detail, contrasted with the strength of the pine to create a solemn composition. The peacock symbolizes wealth and nobility, while the pine represents longevity, making this an auspicious masterpiece suited for celebratory and formal settings.

Its compact size makes it as easy to display as a poster, while its affordable price allows you to enjoy Japanese art casually.

High-Definition Art Reproduction with Hand-Applied Color

The artwork is reproduced on specially prepared Shinkenpon, a silk-like fabric, using advanced giclée printing technology also employed by major museums worldwide for fine-art reproductions. The final details are enhanced with hand-applied color to create a more vivid and realistic appearance. The materials offer excellent resistance to light and ozone, helping preserve the original colors and beauty over time.
