[Details from the paintings of 18th-century artist Itō Jakuchū as seen in the NGA's
Colorful Realm podcast.]
Following their six-year-long restoration, the 30-scroll set of 18th-century flora and fauna paintings by artist Itō Jakuchū have been on view for nearly a month at the
National Gallery of Art in
Colorful Realm -- an unprecedented loan exhibition from Japan (more on the show
here). For
Colorful Realm's final days, April 27, 28, and 29, the museum is extending public viewing hours until 8 p.m. If you can't experience the exhibition in person, sneak a peek via the
podcast and then check out the companion catalogue.
