Small White Water Liliy

Ito Jakuchū Botanical Print – From Genpo Yoka (玄圃瑤華) | Small White Water Lily

A serene nature study by Edo-period master Ito Jakuchū, depicting small white water lilies floating on a quiet pond alongside a frog. Gentle ripples, open space, and crisp monochrome contrast create a calm, meditative atmosphere while highlighting Jakuchū’s refined observation of the natural world.

Painted when Jakuchū was 53, Genpo Yoka is a celebrated series of botanical and nature studies. “Genpo” refers to a secluded place where hermits live, while “Yoka” means flowers as beautiful as jade—expressing the purity and understated elegance found throughout the collection.

Ideal for Japandi, wabi-sabi, minimalist, and contemporary interiors.

Printed on 290 gsm Bamboo Fine Art paper, the warm, natural white color and gentle hand-feel of the surface are elegant.
