Rankafu: Orchid Print Album. With a foreword by Phillip J. Cribb. 2018. 87 (65 col.) pls. 304 p. gr8vo. Hardcover.
Book ID: 107953
Kirby, Stephen, Toshizaku Doi and Toru Otsuka
Rankafu: Orchid Print Album. With a foreword by Phillip J. Cribb. 2018. 87 (65 col.) pls. 304 p. gr8vo. Hardcover.
Rankafu showcases for the first time an exceptional set of orchid woodblock prints from early 20th century Japan. Considered masterworks of botanical art, the Rankafu prints are visually stunning and reproduced here in full colour, showcasing the fine details of this spectacular art form. The process of making woodblock prints at this the decorative printing arts, making this body of work even more remarkable.
The authors tell the story of Shotaro Kaga, a pioneering horticulturist whose orchid collection and breeding programme orchid gardener, Kenkichi Goto were highly skilled orchid growers and developed hundreds of spectacular orchid hybrids. Kagas interest in orchids was sparked by his visit to Kew in 1910 where he first saw tropical orchids in the extensive greenhouses, and visited many famous orchid nurseries such as Sander & Sons, from whom he would buy hundreds of plants over the coming decades. In 1946 Kaga published a set of woodblock prints to document his work and share the beauty of his flowers. Rather than using commercial colour printing to represent his orchids, Kaga turned to woodblock printing He employed the finest artists, carvers, printers and materials to create this stunning legacy.
This book is the most comprehensive work to date on Rankafu and is unrivalled in its breadth of information and research. It is a beautiful book that will appeal to orchid fanatics and lovers of botanical art, as well as those with an interest in 20th century Japan and the artistic process of making Japanese woodblock prints.
