This ceramic mug features an illustration reproduction depicting a stylized butterfly with wings evoking autumn leaves. Hailing from the Rinpa school, this chromatic study in shades of brown, yellow, and black showcases remarkable work on the composition and hierarchy of naturalistic forms.
Designed by Kamisaka Sekka in 1903 for the book Chō senshu, this print captivates with its poetic abstraction. The Japanese artist fuses the animal and plant kingdoms into a refined graphic synthesis characteristic of antique print art.
Practical for everyday coffee or tea, this mug lets you enjoy every break in the company of an iconic work of art. It is also an ideal gift for lovers of Japanese culture and botanical illustrations.
