{"product_id":"design-of-flowers-ogata-korin","title":"Design of Flowers - Ogata Kōrin","description":"\u003cp\u003eA minimalist woodblock print by Ogata Kōrin, featuring a floral design rendered in flat, muted tones of green, grey, and pink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis woodblock print reflects the aesthetic principles of the Rinpa school, a movement defined by its decorative approach to natural subjects. Ogata Kōrin, a central figure of this tradition, utilised simplified forms and flat areas of colour to create a balanced composition. The work focuses on a single floral stem, rendered with minimal detail to emphasise the silhouette and the relationship between the organic shapes and the negative space of the paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe palette is restrained, relying on muted tones of green, grey, and soft pink. This choice of colour allows the viewer to focus on the graphic quality of the design rather than realistic representation. The leaves are depicted as solid, flat shapes, while the flowers retain a subtle softness through the application of ink. This approach is characteristic of Kōrin, who often sought to distil natural elements into their most essential, graphic forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuch designs were frequently used as inspiration for textiles, lacquerware, and screens. The composition is deliberately asymmetrical, a common feature in Japanese art that encourages the eye to move across the surface of the print. By stripping away unnecessary detail, the artist achieves a sense of clarity and order. This print is an example of the graphic sophistication found in the Edo period, where the intersection of fine art and functional design was common. The paper texture remains visible, adding a tactile quality to the printed image. It is a study in economy of line and colour, demonstrating how a few well-placed elements can create a complete visual statement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/korins-painting-style-korin-gashiki-aikawa-minwa\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eKōrin's Painting Style (Kōrin gashiki) - Aikawa Minwa — Aikawa Minwa\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/hibiscus-utagawa-hiroshige\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eHibiscus - Utagawa Hiroshige — Utagawa Hiroshige\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ogata Kōrin","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59092292075855,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59092293058895,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59092293091663,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59092293124431,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59092293157199,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59092293189967,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59092293222735,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59092293255503,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59092293288271,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59092293321039,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59092293353807,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59092293386575,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Design-of-Flowers_Poster_CompositorV1_1791766675382.jpg?v=1791767358","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/design-of-flowers-ogata-korin","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
