Kimono Set, pattern A
Description

After centuries of isolation, in the second half of the 19th century Europe rediscovered Japanese arts, wich influenced fine arts as well as porcelain art. A number of Japanes-inspired motifs have been created at the Herend Porcelain Manufactory, one of the latest example being the kimono pattern dating back to the purest of sources.

The set developed from the ideas of Herend artists comprises six kimono-clad figures: Women combing their haire or holding a parasol, samurais and couples. The human characters are complemented by the shadows of irregularity shaped trees, birds, fish and dragons. The asymmetrically positioned human characters, animals and plants coloured in black and gold have been painted with thick contours and strong, calligraphic brush strokes, perfectly adopting the style of quintessential presentation characteristic of Japanes art.The various elements of the motif are grouped and arranged differently ont the various pieces, some of wich come with a gold rim decorated with silhouettes of black butterflies and plants.

The set is a fine example of Japanese minimalism and a symbol of the relationship between the distant island nation and European art.
