Chrysant before 1896

"Chrysant" is a black and white photograph of three chrysanthemum flowers by Japanese photographer Kazumasa Ogawa, created before 1896. The image showcases Ogawa's talent for capturing the delicate beauty of nature, with the flowers rendered in exquisite detail against a soft, neutral background. This photograph is a fine example of Ogawa's botanical photography, which contributed to the development of photographic art in Japan during the late 19th century.
