Beauties of Nature

花鳥風月 (kachōfūgetsu)

The four-character idiom 花鳥風月 meaning "Beauties of Nature" is also used to refer to something that is "elegant" or "tasteful". This is a particularly beautiful expression as it is composed of four of nature's most beautiful creations which are (read ka) meaning "flowers", (read chō) meaning "birds", (read fū) meaning "wind", and (read getsu) meaning "moon".

This is a very popular phrase and this art makes an excellent gift especially for a Japanese Tea Ceremony enthusiast, Bonsai artist or Ikebana artist.
