Buddha’s Flowers (Lotus), Tokyo
Part of the Art Through Time Collection, Buddha’s Flowers (Lotus), Tokyo is an evocative floral still life by American artist Theodore Wores, created during his time working in Japan around the turn of the 20th century. The painting depicts a cluster of lotus blossoms and their rounded leaves emerging from deep green waters, rendered with lush brushwork that conveys both the tactile surface of the leaves and the quiet beauty of the blooms. Wores was known for his interest in scenes of everyday life and nature encountered during his travels, blending Western painterly technique with sensitivity to Japanese subjects. Popular interpretations see this composition as a contemplative homage to the serenity and spiritual resonance of lotus flowers — a motif often associated with purity and enlightenment — while simultaneously showcasing the artist’s nuanced handling of light and colour.
Prints include the print only and do not come with a frame.
