About the piece
Created in 1917, Fujishima Takeji’s 'Artichoke' is a masterful example of the Yōga movement, blending Western oil painting techniques with a uniquely bold sensibility. The composition features striking purple artichoke flowers emerging from a ceramic vase, contrasted against a deep, moody background and a warm, striped foreground with a book and pipe.
