EDITORS COMMENTS
Manu-Zuru, No. 28,1890: A Captivating Snapshot of Japanese Iris Beauty". This stunning colour woodblock print from the late 19th century showcases the enchanting Manu-Zuru iris, meticulously captured by the skilled artists of the Japanese school. Part of The Yokohama Nursery Co. Ltd. 's catalogue, which specialized in Iris kaempferi, this botanical masterpiece is a testament to Japan's rich floral heritage. The image portrays a clump of these native Japanese irises in full bloom, their large magenta petals gracefully unfurling towards the heavens. Each delicate flower boasts small white centres with captivating magenta tips that create an exquisite contrast against their vibrant surroundings. The rhizomatous plants stand tall and proud amidst sword-shaped leaves that add an elegant touch to the composition. This decorative illustration not only captures the beauty of these perennials but also pays homage to their historical significance within Japan's natural landscape. The Manu-Zuru iris print serves as a reminder of nature's artistry and its ability to inspire awe through its intricate details and vibrant colours. It invites us into a world where flowers are celebrated for their grace and resilience—a world where even something as simple as a petal can evoke wonder and admiration. As we gaze upon this historic gem from our Historica Graphica Collection, let us appreciate both the artistic mastery behind it and the timeless allure of Japan's indigenous flora.
