Rizzoli has had great success with cherry blossom books, and this third volume is sure to be a perennial backlist bestseller. Cherry blossoms are beloved signs of spring renewal celebrated by garden clubs, botanic gardens, and popular festivals. This boxed set features over seventy works printed in a special format that allows for an unbroken, ever-scrolling display of these detailed, jewel-like artworks accompanied by an informative booklet. The cherry tree, traditional symbol of Japan, heralds spring with a spectacular display of subtle color variation spreading like a soft, fragrant cloud over the countryside giving rise to hanami, the ancient cherry blossom festival chronicled by great artists from Hokusai and Hiroshige to Keibun, Bairei, and Hasui. This book showcases classic woodblocks prints that highlight the intense yet ephemeral beauty of this unique floral moment an occasion where family and friends gather in celebration to reflect upon the transience of all things and the fragility of existence. The fleeting beauty of the cherry blossom provides the occasion to contemplate and find wisdom in nature s cycle of life, death, and rebirth. This elegant package makes a thoughtful gift for fans of Japanese art and culture as well as anyone who appreciates the beauty and lore of this beloved flowering tree long treasured in Japan but now also synonymous with the U.S. capital.
Anne Sefrioui is an editor specializing in art books and the author of works on art history, museums, and major monuments. She is also the author of gift sets in the Essential and Masterpieces of Japanese Woodblock Print collections.
