Attractive Appearances of Trees

Date: Wed, October 30, 2024 – Mon, January 20, 2025

Trees surrounding human beings show elegant flowers at certain times, and at other times, give a calm atmosphere of leaves dropping down. Their roots spreading on the ground and the thick trunks would make us feel the strong life force, and fresh greenery swaying in the wind would bring us the bracing feeling. The attractive appearance of trees is preferred as a subject of painting, and various works have been created by painters.
This exhibition will display Japanese paintings of trees, including eye-catching blossoms of cherry trees, illuminated green forests, and the sun’s rays gently peaking through layered leaves. Please enjoy the various appearances of trees calmly standing in abundant nature.
