30 fine color paintings & 24 black ink drawings of various parts of the bamboo. 50 leaves. 4to (275 x 206 mm.), modern bright silk brocade wrappers, stitched as issued. [Probably Japan: late Edo]. A beautiful album of finely rendered drawings of bamboo, accompanied by explanatory text. There has been a long tradition in both China, since the eighth century, and Japan of illustrating bamboo, with much thought given to composition and the painting of the stems, knots, branches, and leaves. A number of treatises were written on the subject. This handsomely painted manuscript contains many illustrations, all finely painted or brush-drawn, of bamboo. Following the title, there are two leaves, which are somewhat soiled, illustrating the yin and yang of the three variations of bamboo painting. They include how to place the brush on the drawing surface and how to maneuver the brush and lift it at just the right moment (the calligraphy techniques are named). These are followed two fine calligraphic illustrations, using black ink, of bamboo branches (again the calligraphy methods are named), followed by a leaf of instructions. Next, there are 18 pages of illustrations of leaves, with each illustration becoming increasingly more complex. Then the manuscript text turns to the botanical aspects of bamboo: where it grows, the genera and uses, appearance, how to propagate, etc. Both Chinese and Japanese names are given, with references to the classic botanical guide Ben cao gang mu [Compendium of Materia Medica]. Next, we have 28 fine full-page illustrations of many genera of bamboo (some pages contain multiple images), each preceded by text describing the examples depicted. They are very vividly colored and finely painted, using many techniques, including the application of mica. Among the elaborate and richly colored illustrations are cross-sections, roots, sprouts, leaves, and fruits. Some of the examples are very exotic. Now we come upon two full-page color illustrations of tools for cutting and trimming bamboo and for the extraction and preparation of medicines, with two pages of explanatory text. Finally, we have a section with six artistic renderings of bamboo in art and literature. They include various iconic Chinese scenes, including variations of literati in bamboo groves and the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove. Each painting is preceded by a leaf of text with a description and historical background of the scene. In fine condition. A contemporary reader has made some neat annotations in red ink. Final leaf has the artist's pen name, written "Seigetsu an." Several minor and marginal wormholes. Preserved in a chitsu.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Aromatherapy is a holistic healing process for the body and mind with the use of fragrances. The basis of this therapy lies in the essential oils contained in plant materials. These can be found in leaves, flowers, roots, seeds, bark and resin. These oils are highly concentrated and when extracted, can either be used in a pure form or diluted and blended with other oils to produce the required strength. Essential oils are medicinal and fragrant and travel through the blood stream reacting with hormones and enzymes. When the fragrance is inhaled the nerve ends in the nose transmit pleasurable signals to the brain which reacts to the positive power of the fragrant aroma inducing pleasant memories, restoring emotional balance and encouraging relaxation and energisation. Many of these fragrant oils have antiseptic and antitoxic qualities and often act as an antidote to viral infections, inflammations, aches and pains.
