The artist Keika Hasegawa interpreted the graceful beauty of the flowers on this page of One Hundred Chrysanthemums, printed in 1893. Each delicately-coloured woodblock print features a perfect bloom balanced atop a long single-stemmed plant. In life, cultivated through the art of ogiku ("single stem"), these plants can reach six feet tall with enormous blossoms the size of softballs.
In Japan, the chrysanthemum, or kiku, is not just a beautiful flower, but the symbol of the sun, perfection, long life, power and nobility. It is the official flower of Japan and the seal of the Imperial family of Japan, as well as the insignia on every Japanese passport. The Emperor, representative of the oldest continuing hereditary monarchy in the world, rules from the Chrysanthemum Throne, symbol of the state and the unity of the people.
