EDITORS COMMENTS
This color-printed woodblock engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of Showy Jasmine, Jasminum floridum, as depicted in Honzo Zufu, an Illustrated Guide to Medicinal Plants published in Japan in 1884. The meticulously crafted image, created by the skilled hands of Kan en Iwasaki, invites us to appreciate the intricate details of this enchanting plant. Showy Jasmine, also known as Jasminum floridum, is a woody vine native to China and Japan, renowned for its fragrant white flowers. The plant's delicate blooms unfurl in clusters, with each flower displaying five petals and a central crown of yellow stamens. The vibrant colors and intricate veining of the leaves are also highlighted in this stunning woodblock engraving. During the Edo period in Japan, the knowledge and use of medicinal plants were highly valued, leading to the creation of numerous illustrated guides like Honzo Zufu. These guides served as essential resources for practitioners of traditional Japanese medicine, providing detailed information on the identification, cultivation, and therapeutic properties of various plants. The botanical accuracy and artistic mastery showcased in this woodblock engraving are a testament to the rich cultural heritage and scientific knowledge of Japan during this period. The intricate details of the Showy Jasmine's anatomy, from its veined leaves to its delicate flowers, are rendered with exquisite precision, making this print an invaluable addition to any botanical or historical collection.
