His existence has not been known in detail until recently, as he did not seek success and notoriety in art circles and focused his work in sketching plants against vanishing nature. His main works are 14 scrolls sketches that compiled his sketches of plants over thirty years and original paintings for Rankafu, an orchid florilegium.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\"\u003eIn the medium of woodblocks, he is primarily known for a limited edition (300 copies each) portfolio of exquisite woodblock prints based on the paintings he made of the extensive orchid collection that Kaga Shotaro had bred at his Villa Oyamazaki in the 1930s.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Owen's Antiques, Collectibles and More","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52089057542465,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/9608\/2241\/files\/20251029_105803.jpg?v=1786819729","url":"https:\/\/www.owenscollectibles.com\/products\/cattleya-orchid-proof-print-by-zuigetsu-ikeda","provider":"Owen's Antiques, Collectibles and More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
