Bunjin
|
Bunjin
style owes its origins to Japanese men of letters, whose works were
distant from the rules and the artistic models.
It is defined also as free style; it is essential and characterized
by strong lines, a few drastically shaped branches on the top.
Although it infringes the basic principle of bonsai practice, which
forbids the cross of branches, it is a very elegant style with reduced
foliage.
It prefers sober aspects and thin shapes, emphasized by very
low pots.
