Picture Book of the Eternal Pines (Ehon chiyo no matsu)
Picture Book of the Eternal Pines is a Japanese woodblock illustrated book by Suzuki Harunobu, printed in Edo in 1767 for a general readership of the period. Its pictures are paired double-page scenes in soft, layered colour, showing interiors with screens, verandas and garden views, with a designer able to draw on its restrained palette and framed composition.
