Part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this polychrome woodblock print is a testament to Hokusai's mastery in depicting the natural world. The composition showcases vibrant peonies and irises blooming against a backdrop of lush foliage.

Through ink and color on paper, Hokusai skillfully captures the essence of these beloved flowers. As we admire this artwork, we are reminded not only of its aesthetic appeal but also its cultural significance. In Japanese tradition, both peonies and irises hold symbolic meanings: peonies represent wealth and honor while irises symbolize courage and admiration.
