Description

A woman's silk kimono with a floral motif.

  • The Vienna Secession was a reaction to the conservative artistic institutions in Vienna at the end of the 19th century, and spread rapidly via media such as catalogs and magazines. These certainly reached Japan, as is evidenced by the Secession’s influence on the Japanese design of the era.
  • This kimono, made with the Meisen technique, shares many of the design elements of the era, as seen with the facade of the Majolica House, designed by Otto Wagner in 1898, pictured here.
