About Keika Hosegawa
About the artwork
Plate 12 documents one of the series' most dramatic cultivars: a spidery, quilled chrysanthemum whose tubular petals radiate outward in thin, curling filaments. The Meiji draughtsman's line is precise and unflinching — each quill tipped with a delicate curl, the mass of them creating an almost kinetic energy at the bloom's edge. Hosegawa sets the flower against a cool, neutral ground that throws its warm ochre tones into sharp relief. The result reads as simultaneously scientific and expressive, a hallmark of the 1893 woodblock botanical tradition at its most assured.
On canvas, the spidery petal filaments take on a new tactile quality — the woven surface of this canvas print from our Berlin studio creating a subtle visual correspondence with the radiating lines of the original. Depth and warmth emerge in the shadowed petal cores, anchoring the composition.

Questions? We're here.
Any questions about this print — just reach out.
Which canvas do you use?
400 g cotton canvas with a visible weave, stretched on a wooden stretcher frame about 2 cm deep. We use Japanese pigment inks and the giclée process.
How long does delivery take?
We make every order in our Berlin studio, usually within 1 to 3 working days, and then hand it to the carrier. In Germany it arrives 2 to 5 working days later. Other countries take longer, and Swiss parcels can sit a day or two at customs.
Can I return my order?
Yes — we offer 30-day hassle-free returns on all prints. If your print arrives damaged or there is a quality issue, we will replace it free of charge.
How do you make sure of the quality?
Our own team makes every art print and canvas print in our Berlin workshop, from printing to framing to packing. What you pay goes into the quality: Japanese pigment inks, matte fine art paper, cotton canvas and solid wood frames in oak, black or brown.
Art print or canvas print?
Choose an art print if you like crisp detail and a classic look behind acrylic glass. Choose a canvas print if you want the texture of a painting and no glass at all. With a floating frame, the canvas seems to float on the wall.
What is a floating frame?
A floating frame is a frame without glass in which the canvas sits with a narrow gap all around. That makes the picture seem to float. Our gap is 5 to 10 mm depending on size, the moulding is 1 cm, and we mount the frame for you.
How do I hang a canvas print?
There are no hangers on the stretcher frame. The Canvas Frame Hook gives you two nail hooks that you hammer into the wall, no drilling and no wall plugs. You hang the canvas print on them, with or without floating frame.
Is this a giclée print?
Yes. We make every canvas print with the giclée process, using Japanese pigment inks on cotton canvas. The inks are archival and made to last over 100 years.
How high should I hang a picture?
The centre of the picture works best at 145 to 150 cm above the floor. Above a sofa or sideboard, the picture should be about two thirds as wide as the furniture.
