EDITORS COMMENTS
This color-printed woodblock engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of the Polka-dot Camellia, Iso Arashi, or Thea Japonica Nois Forma. The botanical illustration was meticulously created by the renowned Japanese botanist, entomologist, and zoologist, Kan En Iwasaki, as part of his comprehensive work, Honzo Zufu, an Illustrated Guide to Medicinal Plants, published in 1884. Iwasaki, born in 1786, was a pioneering figure in Japanese botany, integrating Western knowledge into his studies. His intricate and detailed illustrations, such as this one, served to document and preserve the natural world, showcasing the rich biodiversity of Japan. The Polka-dot Camellia, with its vibrant, white petals speckled with red polka dots, is a stunning example of the natural beauty that Iwasaki sought to capture. The plant, known as Iso Arashi in Japanese, belongs to the Thea Japonica species and is native to Japan. The term "Nois Forma" refers to a specific variation of the plant's appearance. This woodblock engraving, with its rich colors and intricate details, invites us to appreciate the artistry and scientific precision of Iwasaki's work. It serves as a reminder of the importance of documenting and preserving the natural world, a pursuit that remains relevant today as we continue to explore and learn from the wonders of the natural world.
