About This Design
Japan Flag: Hinomaru, Nisshōki, Red Rising Sun Tile
The Hinomaru: Japan's Timeless Symbol - The Hinomaru, or Nisshōki, is the national flag of Japan. Its simple design, consisting of a red circle on a white background, has deep historical and cultural significance. - History - The origins of the Hinomaru can be traced back to ancient times. The red circle symbolises the sun, a powerful and revered symbol in Japanese culture. The sun goddess Amaterasu is considered the ancestor of the Japanese Imperial family, and the Hinomaru is often associated with her. - The flag's modern form was adopted in 1870 during the Meiji Restoration, a period of rapid modernisation and westernisation in Japan. The Hinomaru became a symbol of national unity and identity during this time. - Meaning of Colours - White: Represents purity, honesty, and sincerity. It also symbolises the peace and tranquillity associated with the Japanese people. - Red: Represents the sun, a symbol of energy, life, and prosperity. It also symbolises courage and passion. - Simple Design - The Hinomaru's simple design reflects the Japanese aesthetic of minimalism and elegance. It is easy to recognise and understand, even by people who are unfamiliar with Japanese culture. The flag's simplicity also makes it versatile and adaptable to various contexts, from formal government ceremonies to everyday life. - In Conclusion - The Hinomaru is more than just a flag; it is a powerful symbol of Japan's history, culture, and identity. Its simple yet evocative design has made it a recognisable and enduring emblem around the world. - According to Japanese Copyright Law (June 1, 2018 grant) the copyright on this work has expired and is as such public domain.

Really nice image fixed to the tiles in my shower as a background to a soap dish. This was to hide the marks left by a broken soap dish. Just used tile adhesive and white grout. I think it looks good, almost like the drips are falling from the soap dish. No probs. Nice image.
