Sakura is Japanese for Cherry Blossom which is a celebrated flower that has deep roots within Japanese tradition. Cherry Blossom has over the centuries represented many things within the Japanese arts as well as this nation’s culture: To which they are highly symbolic. The bold colors of Sakura give this three piece canvas art set a rich ambience that would create a striking focal point within any room. As traditional as it is modern this style would suit most environments, to which it is a very versatile wall art set.

Since around the eighteenth century Sakura typically represents the transient nature of life – Since Japanese scholar Motoori Norinaga wrote Mono No Aware: Which means and refers to ‘the pathos of things’. However, the philosophy and representation is not so much about sorrow as it is about sensitivity and recognition: Or should we say awareness. The idea is strongly associated with Buddhist concepts which realize the sadness of things which must pass. The beauty of the Cherry Blossom is short-lived, it’s passing (death) swift – Therefore a solid reflection of our own mortality.

Sakura is a vivid and colorful wall art set. For those looking for wall art that is as symbolic as it is decorative this would be a top choice.
