A picture book entitled Shoshin Kachō Etehon (i.e., Illustrated Manual of Flowers and Birds for Beginners) was published by Mankichi Suzuki in 1888. It included the fifteen pictures of flowers and birds shown in this gallery. Click on a picture to enlarge it. The anonymous artist drew the shapes of his picture subjects only semi-accurately and did not include their true colors.
