Additional Information Image was scanned from color slide. Note: Ikebana is the Japanese art of flower arrangement which emphasizes shape, line and form as well as a minimalist style. While there are numerous schools of Ikebana, the three main schools are: Ikenobō, Ohara and Sōgetsu. The Ohara school was founded by Ohara Unshin in the early 20th century. The styles of the Ohara school superseded the traditional and formalist Rikka style.--Wikipedia.
