EDITORS COMMENTS
This color-printed woodblock engraving showcases the rhizome and fruit of the Round China Cardamom, Amomum globosum Lour., a highly aromatic herb native to South Asia. The intricate illustration is a masterpiece by the renowned Japanese botanist, entomologist, and zoologist, Kan en Iwasaki. Created in 1884 for Honzo Zufu, an Illustrated Guide to Medicinal Plants, Iwasaki's meticulous work represents one of the earliest attempts by a Japanese botanist to integrate Western scientific knowledge into his studies. The rhizome, depicted in the foreground, is a thick, tuberous structure that serves as the plant's underground stem. It is characterized by its rough, brownish-gray surface and numerous small, nodular outgrowths. The round fruit, clustered around the rhizome, are globular in shape and feature a dark brown, almost black, seed-filled capsule. The capsules are enclosed by a bright red, fleshy pericarp, which is rich in volatile oils responsible for the herb's distinctive, pungent aroma. Round China Cardamom, also known as Sauzuku in Japan, has long been valued for its medicinal properties. Traditional uses include treating digestive issues, respiratory problems, and enhancing overall well-being. Iwasaki's exquisite illustration not only showcases the plant's unique features but also serves as a testament to the rich history of botanical exploration and the enduring significance of medicinal plants in various cultures.
