EDITORS COMMENTS
Watanabe Seitei's 'The Twelve Months: Eighth Month' is a stunning work of art from the Nihonga school, created between 1900 and 1918. This exquisite ink on silk painting depicts the eighth month of the year, traditionally associated with the harvest season in East Asia. The artist masterfully captures the essence of summer's bounty, with a close-up view of a bee busily collecting nectar from a flowerhead. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the bee and the flower are brought to life through the use of traditional pigments, showcasing the artist's exceptional skill and dedication to the botanical and zoological subjects. The painting is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan and its deep connection to nature. The eighth month is also known as the month of the white deity, represented by the color white, which is evident in the pristine petals of the flower and the bee's wings. This work is a beautiful addition to any collection of Asian art, and a reminder of the importance of observing and appreciating the natural world around us. The painting is currently housed at the Musée Cernuschi in Paris, France, one of the city's renowned museums dedicated to Asian art. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the artistic traditions of Asia and the natural world.
