About Japanese Kimono Wall Art Print

A square composition shows a Japanese woman in a crimson kimono dotted with small white flecks, worn over a mauve under-robe with a green cord at the front. Her black hair is swept into a high looped chignon and her face is drawn in fine ink line with a small red mouth. Behind her a broad sweep of dusty pink washes across cream paper, edged with dark hatched strokes, while loose pink blossoms float free across the upper left.

Collaged papers build the border: a torn strip of woodblock landscape with red chrysanthemums at top right, a mustard and olive block at top centre, and two panels of Japanese characters at upper left and lower left. Cream paper fibre, creases and torn edges are visible throughout. The mood is quiet and layered, part portrait and part scrapbook page.

Suits a bedroom above a low timber bed, a hallway, or a home office wall where the detail can be read up close. It sits well with rattan, black-framed mirrors, linen in oatmeal or clay, and ceramics. Hang it singly on a narrow wall, or pair it with a second square print in the same palette. Browse more purple and pink art, brown and earthy art, or read Art above the bed: what size and how high.
