About this artwork
Made in 1900, this work by Ohara Koson shows a small bird sitting on a scarecrow. The title sets out the subject plainly, and there is a gentle humour in a bird choosing the very figure meant to keep birds away. Koson was a Japanese painter and woodblock print designer working in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and he stood at the forefront of the shinsaku-hanga and shin-hanga movements. This piece suits anyone who enjoys Japanese art with a light touch and a close look at the natural world.
On your wall: Its small-scale subject suits calm, uncluttered spaces such as a study, hallway, bedroom or reading corner, where a quiet Japanese-inspired picture can be appreciated up close.
