Katsushika Hokusai, Canary and Peony 1834





Hokusai's Fashion Inspiration 2013


 

 

Hokusai's Canary and Peony depicts nature in its natural environment. He uses similar techniques like other Japanese artists which includes cropping and compressed perspective. The fashion inspiration that was directly influenced by this Japanese painting includes a pair of cropped ankle pants and a cropped sweater which is ironic because the image contains cropped portions. The fashion inspiration also includes a flying bird which is also incorporated in Hokusai's painting.
