485 Wood carving Exhibition in Yokohama City (2) – Part 2

Gun-Ho took a round at Mr. Sakata Ikuzo's art exhibition. A dragonfly and a butterfly were sitting on the grass. There were tens of dragonflies and butterflies sitting on a tree branch as well; Gun-Ho indeed couldn't tell whether they were real or wood-carved figures.

"The painter—Solgeo—painted a huge pine tree on the wall at the Hwangryong Temple during Later Silla. And, there is a story that a bird tried to sit on that tree painted on the wall thinking that it was a real tree, and ended up hitting itself against the wall. I guess Mr. Sakata Ikuzo's dragonfly and butterfly would create the same effect once we put them outside. These will certainly attract the birds that are looking for food."
