Hizume-No-Hyoshi, No. 29,1890 - A Captivating Display of Japanese Iris
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This exquisite colour woodblock print from the late 19th century showcases the captivating beauty of Hizume-No-Hyoshi, No. 29. The print is part of the historical graphica collection and originates from the catalogue of The Yokohama Nursery Co. Ltd. , owned by Seitaro Arai, a renowned specialist in Iris kaempferi. In this botanical masterpiece, we are transported to a serene garden where clusters of vibrant irises bloom with grace and elegance. The large magenta petals stand out against a backdrop of sword-shaped leaves, creating an enchanting contrast that captures our attention. The rhizomatous plants boast small white centres with delicate magenta tips that add depth and intricacy to each blossom. Their perennial nature ensures their enduring presence year after year, symbolizing resilience and longevity. This decorative illustration not only celebrates the natural allure of these native Japanese flowers but also pays homage to Japan's rich artistic heritage through its use of traditional woodblock printing techniques. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of the meticulous craftsmanship involved in producing such intricate prints during the Meiji era. Let us appreciate this snapshot frozen in time—a testament to both nature's splendor and human creativity—preserved for generations to come in Heritage Images' esteemed collection.
