“Snow, Moon, & Flowers”: A Japanese expression inspired by the 8th Century Tang dynasty poet Bai Juyi; “Setsu-getsu-ka” (雪月花 “Snow, Moon, & Flowers”) has become a rooted theme in Japanese arts. Poetically echoing nature's beauty - artists have adopted “Setsu-getsu-ka” to help describe Japan’s Places of Scenic Beauty (typically views such as 日本三景 Nihon Sankei - the country’s three most celebrated scenic sights (“Snow in Amanohashidate”; “Moon in Matsushima”; “Flowers in Miyajima”)).
