A butterfly spreads its colourful wings against a pared-back background, every pattern drawn with the care of Ukiyo-e woodblock prints. The vivid tones of the wings, marked by delicate veins, contrast with the plainness behind them and immediately draw the eye toward this small, suspended moment of grace. The shades melt into one another as if laid down by a master's brush. The insect looks ready to take flight at any second, held still in a very Japanese kind of elegance, full of lightness.

This print is part of our Japanese Prints, inspired by Japan's traditional art and its eye for the small details of nature. Light and luminous, it livens up an entryway, a bedroom or a gallery wall, and will please those who love delicate nature and Japan-inspired decor alike. Its colourful palette wakes up a neutral space without ever cluttering it, and works with pale tones as well as deeper ones.
