Art Work

With the Japanese tea ceremony, there is different type of art genres that developed over the years. One of the types of art is calligraphy. Calligraphy was a popular type of art that the Japanese did during the ceremony. The calligraphy developed into love for this art made the script more popular then regular print.

Another genre that is popular with the Japanese is paintings. They liked paintings in their rooms and on their screens. These paintings were in Chinese style in the beginning. They liked paintings and this love for Chinese artwork.

The other type of artwork they liked to do is poetry. They were very fluent in writing poetry and why I can’t find much information on the poetry composed, I did find that they wrote poetry in Haiku style.

They wrote poetry for others to read and for the comfort of their home. This was the art style of their artwork in the Japanese Tea ceremony. (Tea in Japan 28-29)
