"A round, rosy squash, its gnarled stem reaching skyward, is painted with almost scientific precision, accompanied by a few Japanese characters."

Artwork Context

This botanical watercolor illustration documents a variety of Japanese squash (Cucurbita moschata), in the tradition of honzōgaku, the illustrated study of plants and their virtues, inherited from Edo-period Japanese pharmacopoeia.

What is honzōgaku, as illustrated by this squash print?

Honzōgaku is the illustrated study of plants and their virtues, inherited from Edo-period Japanese pharmacopoeia – this squash is documented with the same almost scientific precision as large Western herbariums.
