The same could be said of the intricately painted kimonos. Each silk kimono and obi on display was painted completely by hand. As you can see in these examples, the skill and attention to detail was amazing. Especially when botanical subjects were handled, the graceful realism just jumped off the silk! This made the ikebana arrangements a natural pairing for the kimonos, don't you think?
