details
A beautiful look at ikebana through the lens of one of its oldest and most formal traditions.
This richly illustrated volume focuses on rikka, a historic style associated with the Ikenobo school, using carefully reproduced paintings to reveal how line, balance, space, and plant material work together in highly considered arrangements.
Part floral history, part visual study, and particularly good for anyone interested in seeing flower arranging as composition rather than decoration.
