EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored woodblock print, titled "Itachi Sasage (Itachi Lathyrus)" from the series "Kusa Bana Hyakushu" (One Hundred Varieties of Flowers), showcases the beautiful and intricate details of the Itachi Sasage, or Itachi Sweet Pea, a variety of Lathyrus davidii. The print is the work of renowned Japanese artist Kono Bairei, created in Tokyo in 1901 by Yamada Publishing. The Itachi Sasage is depicted in full bloom, its vibrant purple and white petals unfurling gracefully around its delicate green stems. The intricate veining and delicate texture of the leaves are expertly rendered in the print, adding to the overall sense of realism and beauty. The background is kept simple, with a muted green hue that allows the flower to take center stage. The art of woodblock printing has a rich history in Japan, with its origins dating back to the 12th century. The process involves carving an image into a block of wood, inking the raised surfaces, and then pressing the ink onto paper to create the final image. The intricacy and detail of the carving required for such a print is truly remarkable, making each one a unique work of art. The "Kusa Bana Hyakushu" series, of which this print is a part, was created to showcase the beauty and diversity of various flowers and plants. The series features a total of 100 different varieties, making it an important contribution to the history of botanical illustration in Japan. This particular print, with its stunning depiction of the Itachi Sasage, is a testament to the skill and artistry of Kono Bairei and the woodblock printing tradition in Japan.
