Ohara Koson: Great Spotted Woodpecker in Tree with Red Ivy, 50x70cm Framed Art Reproduction With Black Frame

Great Spotted Woodpecker in Tree with Red Ivy

The Artist: Ohara Koson

Ohara Koson (1877–1945), who also used the art names Shōson and Hōson, was one of the foremost Japanese artists of the Shin-Hanga ('new prints') movement, particularly celebrated for his exquisite kachō-e (bird-and-flower pictures) and animal prints.

Born Ohara Matao in Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture, he initially studied Nihonga (Japanese-style painting) under Suzuki Kason in Tokyo. His early career included illustrating books and Russo-Japanese War scenes. Around 1900, he began designing woodblock prints, initially working with publis . . . Read More >>

The Artwork: Great Spotted Woodpecker in Tree with Red Ivy

This vibrant autumn scene showcases Koson's extraordinary mastery of kacho-e, capturing a great spotted woodpecker in its natural habitat as it clings to a tree trunk adorned with brilliant red ivy. Created during the shin-hanga movement of the early 1900s, this print demonstrates the artist's exceptional ability to observe and celebrate the dynamic relationships between birds and their seasonal environments. The woodpecker's distinctive black and white plumage, accented by the male's characteristic red cap, creates a striking contrast against the fiery crimson of the autumn ivy that cascades down the weathered bark.

Koson's meticulous attention to detail brings extraordinary life to both the bird's alert posture and the intricate patterns of the ivy leaves as they transition from green to brilliant red. The woodpecker's powerful claws grip the bark with practiced ease, while its sturdy beak suggests the industrious nature that makes these birds such fascinating subjects for observation. The interplay of textures - from the bird's sleek feathers to the rough tree bark and delicate ivy - demonstrates the artist's technical mastery and deep appreciation for nature's infinite variety.

This original-style print brings the vibrant energy of autumn wildlife into contemporary homes without modern embellishments. Perfect for studies or home offices where the woodpecker's industrious nature inspires productivity, or in dining rooms where the rich autumn colors complement seasonal gatherings. The dynamic composition and warm palette work beautifully in living spaces that celebrate both natural beauty and the changing seasons. Capture autumn's vibrant spirit - let this industrious woodpecker bring dynamic energy and seasonal beauty to your space, creating a lively focal point that celebrates both nature's productivity and the magnificent colors of fall.
