'Screen with Spring and Summer Flowers' Decorative Window Films

Collection | Ashmolean Museum
Code | ASH0273

Description

These screens by the samurai artist Watanabe Shikō are typical of the Rinpa style of painting. The Rinpa school emerged in Kyoto in the early 1600s and is distinctive for its dramatic compositions and bold use of gold and colours. One of the most characteristic Rinpa painting techniques is called tarashikomi, in which ink or colour is dripped onto another area of colour that is still wet, to create a softly pooled effect — ideal for depicting leaves or petals.

Japanese screens are designed to be viewed from right to left, so spring is shown on the far right of this screen progressing through to summer on the left.

A modern twist on stained glass and window etching – the perfect solution for windows where you need privacy and light. All our window films are made to measure and made to order from a curated selection of images carefully selected for glazing both inside and out. Our colour designs use images chosen for their vibrancy, creating real impact on internal glazing or windows. Our white and grey designs create an etched glass look favoured by interior designers and architects. 

All our decorative window films are easy to apply and can be removed without leaving any permanent adhesive residue on your glazing.
