EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate beauty of the Rhizome and leaves of Alpinia chinensis Rose, also known as Mogyaku. The delicate details of this Chinese alpinia plant are brought to life through a color-printed woodblock engraving by Kan'en Iwasaki from "Honzo Zufu," an Illustrated Guide to Medicinal Plants dating back to 1884.
Iwasaki, a Japanese botanist, entomologist, and zoologist, was ahead of his time in incorporating western knowledge into his studies. His expertise is evident in the precision and accuracy with which he depicted this botanical specimen.
The vibrant green leaves contrast beautifully against the intricate root system showcased in this illustration. Each leaf seems to dance gracefully around the central rhizome, creating a sense of movement within this static image.
