艸木畫譜
A Japanese woodblock picture book (ehon) of plants, drawn by Ichikō Saisai Yoshimori and published in 1863 by Hoeidō, a Japanese publisher. The pages show flowers and branches in plain hand-coloured woodblock prints, with kana and kanji labels beside each plant. A designer could take the simple outlines, flat colour fills, and the botanical arrangement of single blossoms against pale paper.
