Vigorous and lively pine trees are portrayed over the high quality grass paper in this signature folding screen of HAKUICHI.
The dynamic background is created by blowing the fine particles of gold leaves from the bottom, using the technique called Tsutsufuri. Rougher particles are used at the bottom and the particles become finer and finer toward the top, reminiscent of morning mist floating at the foot of pine trees or waves. As with many ink-brush paintings, this artwork leaves white, or golden, space in the background in a deliberate effort to intrigue the viewers’ imagination.

The product is a replication of Red and White Plum Blossoms by Ogata Kōrin, a prolific and renowned artist of the Edo period. The contrasts in Ogata Kōrin's most notable masterpiece are absolutely sublime. The light and dark are depicted by the gold leaf and flowing waters, and movement and stillness are symbolized by the red and white plum blossoms. The flowing water, which can be said to be the most remarkable detail of the artwork, is depicted using silver leaf and oxidized silver leaf, which are said to have been used at the time. Although there are various theories about how Ogata Kōrin actually illustrated the flowing water, Kōrin's artistic style has been reproduced as accurately as possible.
