EDITORS COMMENTS
This color-printed woodblock engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of White Peony (Paeonia obovata, left) and Pale Pink Peony (Paeonia obovata, right), two varieties of the same plant species, as depicted in Honzo Zufu, an Illustrated Guide to Medicinal Plants published in 1884. The engraving is the work of renowned Japanese botanist, entomologist, and zoologist, Kan en Iwasaki (1786-1842). Iwasaki was a pioneer in his field, being one of the first Japanese botanists to integrate western knowledge into his studies. The White Peony, also known as the Tree Peony or Yama-zakura, is admired for its large, pure white blooms adorned with red stigmas. The Pale Pink Peony, or Shakuyaku, boasts delicate pink petals with a slight blush of red at the edges. Both varieties are native to China and Japan and have been valued for their medicinal properties since ancient times. The intricate detail in this woodblock engraving highlights the unique characteristics of each peony variety, from their velvety petals to their sturdy stems. The vibrant colors and precise lines bring the flowers to life, offering a glimpse into the rich botanical heritage of Japan during the late Edo period. This enchanting artwork not only serves as a visual representation of the medicinal plants, but also stands as a testament to Iwasaki's dedication to documenting the natural world and advancing scientific knowledge in Japan.
