12416 Tanigami Konan (1879–1928) – Camellias in Bloom – Woodblock print (1923)
"Camellias in Bloom". This work portrays a vibrant arrangement of red, white, and pink camellia blossoms amidst dark green foliage. The woodblock print utilizes traditional multi-block techniques to achieve rich color saturation and delicate shading on the petals. This piece belongs to a botanical series published by Unsodo in Kyoto and was printed by Sagi Keizo using the original woodblocks. The composition reflects the transition of Japanese floral art toward a more naturalistic and vivid style.
Tanigami Konan was a Japanese painter and printmaker active during the Taisho and early Showa eras. He was a prominent figure in the Nihon-ga movement and specialized in kacho-e, the traditional genre of bird and flower motifs. Konan was among the first artists to document western floral varieties in Japan, blending traditional woodblock artistry with western botanical realism. His extensive collaborations with the publisher Unsodo resulted in several influential botanical albums that documented flora with technical precision.
