EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored woodblock print showcases the enchanting beauty of Oshiroibana, or Mirabilis Jalapa, also known as the Marvel of Peru. Created by the renowned Japanese artist Kono Bairei, this artwork is part of the series "Kusa Bana Hyakushu" (One Hundred Varieties of Flowers), published in Tokyo by Yamada in 1901. Oshiroibana, native to South America, was introduced to Japan in the late 1800s and quickly became a popular garden flower due to its unique and captivating appearance. The plant features star-shaped, velvety white flowers with a striking red center, which bloom in abundance during the night. Bairei masterfully captures the essence of this nocturnal bloom in his woodblock print. The intricate details of the petals, veins, and stems are meticulously rendered, showcasing the artist's exceptional skill and dedication to botanical accuracy. The delicate hand-coloring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy to the print, enhancing the allure of the Oshiroibana. As part of the "One Hundred Varieties of Flowers" series, this print is a testament to Japan's rich cultural history of botanical exploration and artistic expression. The series, which featured a wide range of flowers from both Japan and abroad, was inspired by the country's growing interest in horticulture and the natural world during the Meiji period (1868-1912). This stunning Oshiroibana woodblock print not only serves as a beautiful decorative piece but also as a window into Japan's past, showcasing the country's appreciation for the natural world and its artistic traditions.
