Cherry and Maple Trees-Hōitsu Screen Accent Pillow
Cherry and Maple Trees
Sakai Hōitsu Japanese
early 1820s
This pair of screens, painted in vivid colors on a brilliant gold-leaf background, presents a budding willow and a cherry tree in full bloom alongside two maple trees at the peak of their crimson glory. The compositions are distinctive for their array of related springtime and autumnal plants and flowers, all with poetic significance in haiku of the period. While hanging-scroll paintings by Sakai Hōitsu abound, only a half dozen or so pairs of screens in this six-panel format are known to survive, and these in particular stand out for their originality of composition, strong visual impact, and projection of lyrical elegance.
This work can be dated to late in Hōitsu’s career, when he was joined in his studio by his closest and most talented pupil, Suzuki Kiitsu (1796–1858).

This is a great pillow, I love the size. It looks great on my couch and it is the perfect color. The pillow is well-made and soft. The printing on this pillow turned out better than I expected. The colors are vibrant and the printing is crisp.

Great quality, colors, and graphics. I bought this for my storytime area in the elementary school Library where I work. It sits on my great grandfathers rocking chair which is also the storytime chair. Students who have shown good behavior get a turn in the chair and immediately snuggle with the pillow (all Covid safe of course). It been washed/sanitized several times already and still looks brand new. Highly recommended for any Library, nursery, reading nook, wherever you want a bit of cheer and added comfort! :). I went with the advertised print of "Storytime" as it was going in my Storytime area. But it can be customized/personalized and the printing is well done. Clear and no smudges, and in an "old school" typewriter font--love it! Reminds me of my own home town Library decor from my childhood.
