About the Item

Title: Japanese Phoenix in Vibrant Flight: Antique Lithograph, 1880s This magnificent lithograph from the 1880s showcases an exquisite depiction of a phoenix soaring across a vivid red backdrop, a powerful symbol of rebirth and renewal in Japanese art. Published by Sampson Low & Co. and printed in Paris by the masterful Imp. Lemercier & Cie, this work was directed by G. A. Audsley, a British artist who played a significant role in introducing Japanese design to European audiences during the height of the Japonisme movement. The phoenix, with its flowing tail feathers rendered in a stunning array of greens, blues, reds, and yellows, emerges with dynamic elegance against a bold, red ground. Surrounding the majestic bird are delicately stylized leaves and blossoms, adding a sense of life and vitality to the composition. The overall design is enclosed in an olive-green border featuring a refined geometric floral pattern, providing a sophisticated frame that perfectly balances the rich drama of the central image. The bold colors and intricate patterns in this print exemplify the Meiji-era fascination with traditional Japanese symbols and their transformative power in Western design. This lithograph is a remarkable piece for collectors of Japanese art, antique textiles, or those seeking to bring a sense of movement and vivid color into their interior spaces. Condition report: Excellent condition for its age, with minor foxing and age-appropriate wear along the edges. The colors remain remarkably vibrant, and the fine details are well-preserved, maintaining the lithograph’s rich visual impact. Framing tips: To highlight the vibrant red background and the dynamic form of the phoenix, frame this piece in a simple black or dark wood frame. A soft cream or warm beige mat will provide a subtle contrast, ensuring the phoenix remains the captivating focal point of this elegant and historic work.
