Continuing the traditional Kakiemon style into the present day, he has further evolved the muddy porcelain style established by his predecessor, presenting stunning works with outstanding descriptive power and sophisticated taste. This work was created by the 14th generation Sakaida Kakiemon, a leading figure who achieved many accomplishments, including being designated a Living National Treasure for Arita ware colored porcelain. The "Four-Sided Flower Design" is one of his most popular subjects, painted with light, flowing brushstrokes and a clean, unobtrusive color scheme on a milky white muddy porcelain base, creating a bright and beautifully expressed piece. The perfectly balanced shapes, vibrant, realistic painting, and densely detailed yet beautifully accented white space make this an exquisite masterpiece. The 14th generation's work, which carries the 400-year history of Arita, continues to receive increasing acclaim and is sure to continue to garner high attention in the future.
