Over het schilderij
In 1864, Boston architect Henry Van Brunt commissioned John La Farge to paint a series of decorative panels to adorn the dining room of a prominent local builder. This striking still life hails from that commission. With itsaqueous subject, tight, asymmetrical composition, and gold ground, the painting reflects the artist’s lifelong interest in Japanese woodcuts and screen painting. La Farge avidly collected Japanese prints, traveled to Japan in 1886, and later published a book about his journey.
