This reproduction is a Japanese print by artist Kōno Bairei, dedicated to a yellow althea flower. The work is distinguished by the fineness of its line and the delicacy of its composition, featuring the blooming flower, two buds, and its foliage on a thin branch. The naturalist approach pays tribute to the plant's simple and structured beauty.
Coming from the artistic corpus of Kōno Bairei (1844-1895), this plate is part of the kacho-ga movement (paintings of birds and flowers), highly prized in the Meiji era. The artist combines traditional Japanese printing techniques with a concern for realism and documentary precision inherited from Western scientific observation.
This illustration is aimed at botany enthusiasts, Japanese art collectors, and those seeking a decorative work that is both elegant and instructive. It invites the contemplation of nature's details, captured with great artistic mastery.
