EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored woodblock print showcases the elegant beauty of the Japanese anemone, Anemone hupehensis var. japonica, as captured by the skilled brush of Kono Bairei in his work for Kusa Bana Hyakushu (One Hundred Varieties of Flowers), published in Tokyo by Yamada in 1901. Anemone hupehensis var. japonica, also known as the Japanese anemone or wind flower, is a beloved garden plant native to East Asia. Its delicate, white petals with pink centers unfurl in late summer and autumn, creating a stunning contrast against the backdrop of falling leaves. The artistry of this woodblock print is evident in the intricate details of the anemone's petals, each one meticulously hand-painted to bring out their delicate texture and subtle color variations. The background is expertly rendered in shades of green, adding depth and dimension to the image. The overall effect is one of tranquility and grace, transporting the viewer to a serene Japanese garden. Woodblock printing was a popular art form in Japan during the Edo period (1603-1868), with Kono Bairei (1844-1933) being one of its most renowned practitioners. His works were known for their meticulous attention to detail and their ability to capture the essence of the natural world. This print of the Japanese anemone is a testament to his mastery of the technique and his appreciation for the beauty of the natural world. The historical significance of this print is further underscored by its inclusion in Kusa Bana Hyakushu, a collection of one hundred woodblock prints showcasing various flowers and plants. The publication of this series marked a revival of interest in woodblock printing during a time when it was being overshadowed by newer printing techniques. Today, this print remains a cherished piece of botanical and artistic history, a reminder of the beauty and elegance of the natural world and the skill of the artists who captured it.
