Kachozu Kano Eigaku work
"Where did the devotion of a painter who held flowers and birds so finely come from?"
📝ONGO's Reflection
This is a flower-and-bird painting rendered on silk by the Japanese Kano school painter Kano Eigaku. The Kano school honed a style passed down through generations and achieved fine depiction. Though it came from the tradition of Japanese painting, its devotion stirs the heart anywhere. I see, in this delicacy, the fingertips of one who walked a single path long. A depiction that neglected not a single petal or feather does not come without long discipline. Skill ripens through repetition more than through talent. The time of steadily walking the same path accumulated in the fingertips, and only then became such fineness.
