简介

这本精美的插图卷册收录了纽约公共图书馆斯宾塞收藏馆的17世纪古典艺术品复制品，颂扬了日本插花艺术。精致的绘画复制品展示了立花（rikka），这是最古老、最传统的插花形式，与日本第一个也是最大的花道流派——池坊（Ikenobō）学校相关联。书中呈现的图像完美地阐释了花道的主要原则——花朵的和谐并置、叶与枝的平衡，以及用于展示的自然主义构图。几个世纪以来，花道发展出了多种流派和风格。立花风格的特点是使用直立的枝条和花朵来呈现显著的垂直感，以在一个花瓶中表现自然景观之美。本集中的花艺作品可追溯到京都六角堂的池坊家元及其在足利幕府时期（1336-1573）的弟子们。这些花艺作品于1673年由Igai Sansaemon以木板印刷方式正式记录，随后采用颜彩（gansai）水彩技法手工上色。复制品配有世界领先的日本艺术权威之一的权威文本。如今，花道仍然是日本最受欢迎的艺术形式之一，并被世界各地的花艺师日益接受。它是一种美妙的、冥想和沉思的创造性个人表达形式，让实践者逃离日常烦恼，进入一个平衡、秩序、宁静与美的世界。

This beautifully illustrated volume celebrates the Japanese art of arranging flowers with reproductions of classical seventeenth-century artworks from the New York Public Library's Spencer Collection. Meticulous reproductions of sublime paintings showcase rikka, the oldest and most traditional form of flower arranging, which is linked to the Ikenobō school, Japan's first and largest school of ikebana. The images presented here perfectly illustrate the main principles of ikebana—harmonious juxtaposition of flowers, balance between foliage (leaves, fronds, reeds, etc.) and branches, and naturalistic compositions for display. Several schools and styles of ikebana have evolved over the centuries. The rikka style is characterized by the use of erect branches and flowers to display a marked verticality in order to express the beauty of a natural landscape in a single vase. The floral arrangements in this collection date back to the Ikenobō Grand Master of Kyoto's Rokkakudō Temple and his disciples from the Ashikaga Shogunate (1336–1573). These flower arrangements were officially documented by Igai Sansaemon in 1673 in artworks printed xylographically and then hand-colored using the gansai watercolor technique. The reproductions are accompanied by authoritative text by one of the world's leading authorities on Japanese art. Today, ikebana remains one of Japan's most popular art forms, and it is increasingly embraced by flower arrangers around the world. It is a wonderfully meditative and contemplative form of creative and personal expression, allowing practitioners to flee their daily cares into a world of balance, order, serenity, and beauty.
