Short-eared Owl and Cherry Blossom illustration from Pictorial Monograph of Birds (1885)
The 1885 artwork "Short-eared Owl and Cherry Flower" by Numata Kashu is a fascinating illustration that is part of his "Pictorial Monograph of Birds". This depiction shows a short-eared owl sitting next to blooming cherry blossoms, seemingly in silent observation. The combination of the nocturnal owl with the delicate blossoms creates a delightful contrast between the silence of the night and the ephemeral beauty of nature. Kashu's ability to capture the fine details of the owl's feathers and the delicate texture of the cherry blossoms demonstrates his exceptional talent and deep appreciation for the natural world.
Interesting fact: Numata Kashu was known not only as an artist but also as a significant contributor to scientific illustration in Japan. His works, especially the "Pictorial Monograph of Birds", are not only artistically valuable but also of great importance for the ornithological research of his time. Through his detailed illustrations, Kashu contributed significantly to the understanding and appreciation of bird life in Japan.

Our fine art giclée printers use 12 different ink tanks and produce museum-quality art prints. Thanks to specially pigmented inks, significantly more color nuances can be displayed than with conventional printing processes and other providers.

We use extra-heavy (400g/m2) premium canvas made from 100% cotton. The high grammage and texture of the canvas ensures a particularly high-quality and almost three-dimensional appearance.
Environmentally friendly
We only use original and high-quality pigment ink which contains real pigment particles. This is UV-resistant, solvent-free, vegan and environmentally friendly.
UV & moisture resistant
Thanks to the UV resistance of our pigment inks, the prints do not fade or discolor and retain their color brilliance for up to 100 years.
