花壇叢木画譜 6巻 [4]

1813 · 松本新助 [ほか6名] · 60 pictures

This is a Japanese woodblock-printed botanical picture book in six volumes, published in 1813 by Matsumoto Shinsuke and six others, presenting garden flowers and plants for readers who grew or admired them. The four pictures show upright flowering stems drawn in fine outline, with slender lance-shaped leaves, clustered blossoms, and handwritten Japanese plant names in the margins, offering a designer clean linear botanical drawing and a clear model for minimal line work.
