Created using two images from the Freer|Sackler Museum using Blender and Photoshop.

“At least eight varieties of trees have been identified in the screens F1962.30-31, reflecting a growing interest at that time among educated Japanese in natural history classification. Yet even with careful attention to botanical accuracy, the painter offers no suggestion of spatial relationship between the trees.” ~ https://www.freersackler.si.edu/object/F1962.30 & https://www.freersackler.si.edu/object/F1962.31
