Keika hyakugiku Pl.07 1893 by Keika Hosegawa
Plate 7 from the 1893 Kyoto series presents a chrysanthemum cultivar with densely layered petals — a variety bred for fullness over simplicity. Hasegawa's composition handles the visual complexity by anchoring the bloom low in the frame, letting the upper petals open into clear ground. The draughtsmanship is meticulous: each petal differentiated by subtle shifts in edge pressure and ink density, the stem and leaf structure noted with the same care as the flower itself. A precise, quietly fascinating record of Meiji horticultural culture.
This fine art print is produced in our Berlin studio using archival pigment inks on museum-grade paper, preserving the intricate line work and restrained palette of Hasegawa's original with sharp, faithful detail.
