L'œuvre en bref
Crossbill and thistle illustrates the encounter between a wild bird and a thorny plant. Hokusai precisely captures the crossbill, whose brown feathers are accentuated by the soft shades of the thistle. The delicate interplay between bird and plant evokes a natural ballet, with each actor playing a part in the balance of nature.
Incorporating elements of animal portraiture and botany, this work bears witness to Hokusai's profound understanding of the natural world. The ukiyo-e tradition is evident in the finesse of the details and the purity of the colours. With this painting, the artist emphasises the harmonious coexistence of species, even in the most unexpected circumstances.
