A Butterfly Okimono

#Ittousai #lacquer #driftwood #okimono #butterfly

This work could be classified as a lacquer work or a sculpture.

The downloadable image does not show that the butterfly worked in bronze is perched on a piece of driftwood that has been carefully lacquered to preserve it and enhance the bronzework by contrast.

Its an early 20th century work!



Our butterfly series continues next week Join Me then!
