Pine Tree, Bamboos, and Plum Blossoms 

Exhibition information
There are currently no plans to exhibit this artwork at the TNM Collection Exhibitions.

Pine trees, bamboos, and plum blossoms form an auspicious trio in Japanese art. Pines symbolize longevity as they keep their green leaves throughout winter, while tough, fast-growing bamboos represent robust growth. As the first to bloom in early spring, plum blossoms signify brilliant vitality. They are all associated with good fortune in the New Year.
