Three full-page woodcuts & nine smaller woodcuts in the text. .5 36 folding leaves. 8vo orig. blue wrappers as above later decorated wrappers later stitching. From the colophon: Edo: Yamashiroya Sahei 1814.<br /> <BR> <BR> First editions a rare complete set of these two works which are concerned with two important seasonal celebrations. The first of the year is the Festival of Seven Herbs in Spring Nanakusa no sekku a traditional Japanese ritual of eating seven-herb rice porridge on the 7th of January; its consumption would bring longevity and health and ward off evil. The tradition derives from ancient China. The seven herbs are seri Japanese parsley nazuna shepherd’s purse gogyo cudweed hakobera chickweed tahirako nipplewort suzuna turnip and suzushiro daikon radish.<br /> <BR> <BR> The other is the Festival of Seven Autumn Herbs Akino nanakusa less well known then the spring celebration. These herbs are hagi bush clover obana/susuki Japanese pampas grass kuzu kudzu nadeshiko Japanese dianthus ominaeshi Patrinia scabiosifolia fujibakama Eupatorium fortunei and kikyo balloon flower. While many of them have medicinal qualities for this festival they are not for eating but for viewing and admiring.<br /> <BR> <BR> Kikuu Kitano 1762-1831 a native of Sendai came to Edo in the 1780s and opened an antiques gallery that enjoyed great success. In 1804 he purchased a large piece of land in the Mukojima section of Edo where he established a botanic garden today known as the Mukojima Hyakkaen Garden. It is Tokyo’s only surviving garden from the Edo period. There he planted a landscaped orchard of 360 plum trees and other plants including the seven herbs of both spring and autumn selected by Kitano and his literati friends both poets and painters. <br /> <BR> <BR> These works are very beautifully printed using a wide variety of character styles to express meanings and authorship. The first two volumes to be published — on the autumn festival — contain a fine full-page woodcut designed by the author showing all seven herbs. The text contains references to each herb in waka and kanshi Chinese poetry written by Japanese a guide to understanding the nuances of the poetry and the botanical literature.<br /> <BR> <BR> The spring festival volume published two years later describes each of the seven spring herbs and their uses in medicine and gastronomy with many references to the Japanese botanical literature. There is a long passage on how to prepare the springtime porridge. The woodcuts depicting each of the seven herbs are by prominent artists including Kita Busei 1776-1856 and an unidentified woman artist.<br /> <BR> <BR> PROVENANCE: With the seals of Mayori 1829-1906 and Mamichi 1866-1925 Kurokawa prominent father and son book collectors. Their collection was largely concerned with botanical and herbal books; most of the collection was destroyed in the great Kanto earthquake. Our set later entered the collection of Frank Hawley scholar and one of the most discerning collectors of Japanese books and manuscripts. His stamp appears on the first page of text. See R.H. van Gulik’s “In Memoriam. Frank Hawley 1906-1961†in Monumenta Nipponica Vol. 16 No. 3/4 Oct. 1960-Jan. 1961 pp. 434-47.<br /> <BR> <BR> Fine set preserved in a fine chitsu.
