My advice is don't go for literati it's often the easiest way out. However a Literati is considered a piece of art with a good story and powerful harmonized movement. Really hard to make a convincible piece. But if you can, go for it.
I would use as much of the tree as possible,but cut the top part out because thats to far away from the rest of the foliage on the tree.
You can even train it some years to style it as a cascade in the future. (Train the rootball I mean to fit a cascade pot.)
Infinite possibilities here. nice material.
