楳嶺花鳥画譜 茶・〔ムクドリ〕・鷦鷯(収載資料名:あづまにしきゑ)
A Japanese woodblock print from an 1883 picture book of flowers and birds by the artist Baiokurei (楳嶺), printed in Japan for connoisseurs of ehon. The image shows a flowering branch with red berries and teal-green leaves, with thrush-like birds perched and flying above a stream and a wooden fence. A designer could take its flat, pale palette, careful botanical detail, and asymmetrical composition from the upper-right sprig down to the lower-left bird.
