Hornel was deeply impressed by the sophisticated and highly decorative Japanese prints that he saw. His work, including the present composition which he painted the year after his return from Japan, shows this influence in his intricate tapestry-like patterns held in tightly constructed compositions. In a lecture given in 1895 Hornel explained, 'this is perhaps one of the greatest achievements of the Japanese, the raising of the common-place into the region of art, and investing it with a charm at once ... full of dignified line and splendour of colour, the greatest impressionism the world has so far possessed, in which all details are laid aside, or made subservient to the motif, giving you only the spirit and character of the figure, bird or flower portrayed. I know of no art which for directness of impressiveness can surpass the past achievements of the Japanese'.
