Birds and Flowers of Kono Bairei

Kono Bairei's wonderfully lifelike images of birds and flowers first appeared in a three-volume, 1883 portfolio. His woodblock prints were so popular that dealers sold them individually, destroying most complete sets. A collector's delight, this exquisite edition reprints a facsimile assembled in the 1930s and is alive with 150 color illustrations of the highest quality.
