About Irisis (R) Ogata Korin c1701 Edo Period Japanese Masterpiece Painting
The Irises screens by Ogata Korin (1658–1716) are considered one of the most iconic masterpieces of Japanese art. Painted during the Edo period, these screens are currently designated as a National Treasure of Japan and are housed in the Nezu Museum.The work consists of a pair of six-panel folding screens featuring clusters of Japanese irises against a shimmering gold-leaf background. Korin used high-quality mineral pigments, specifically azurite for the deep blue of the flowers and malachite for the vibrant green of the leaves. The flowers are painted in the mokkotsu ("boneless") style, meaning they were created without ink outlines. This contributes to the soft, rhythmic quality of the composition.
