Kobayashi's Bonsai Museum

03/29/23


The great Kunio Kobayashi at work (at play!) with a massive Japanese black pine.

We've got a real treat for you today. It has been a while since we paid a digital visit to Kunio Kobayashi's Shunka-en Bonsai Museum and now that we're doing it, the shear magnificent bonsai (and beyond bonsai) brilliance is overwhelming. Next time we won't wait so long.


This piece of a masterpiece is identified as simply Juniper.


Slanting Japanese black pine.


Another juniper.


The caption with this ancient pine says simply: bless with long life tree.


Most of the great Japanese bonsai artists love junipers and deadwood and Mr. Kobayashi is no exception.


No caption with this, but I think it's safe to say it's a bunjin style pine.


Azalea 'Osakazuki'


Floating Japanese maple leaves. Here's part of the caption: All art starts from nature.


Fin.
