EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print showcases the beauty of a variety of Japanese camellias known as Thea japonica Nois, specifically the Kahei with ecarlate flowers. Created by Kanen Iwasaki, a renowned botanist, entomologist, and expert in Japanese zoology during the 19th century, this woodcut captures the intricate details and vibrant colors of these stunning flowers.
Published in Honzo Zufu in 1884, an illustrative guide to medicinal plants, this artwork serves not only as a visual delight but also as a valuable resource for those interested in botanical studies. The precision and artistry displayed in this engraving highlight Iwasaki's expertise and dedication to capturing the essence of nature through his work.
The delicate petals and rich hues of the ecarlate flowers are brought to life through Iwasaki's skillful use of color and line work. Each bloom seems to leap off the page, inviting viewers to appreciate the intricacies of these Japanese camellias up close.
