Additional Information |
Image was scanned from color slide. Note: "Saikei (planted landscape) is a descendant of the Japanese arts of bonsai, bonseki, and bonkei, and is the art of creating tray landscapes that combine miniature living trees with soil, rocks, water, and related vegetation (like ground cover) in a single tray or similar container. A saikei landscape will remind the viewer of a natural location..."--Wikipedia. Note: Original caption information provided as: "Bonsai, Ala Moana Cent. Exhibit, Honolulu, Hawaii. (Japan)" |
