| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Plant xylotheques, whose presence was known at the Berlin-Dahlem Botanic Garden and Royal Botanic Garden Kew, were only known that they were made by Chikusai Kato in around 1878 at the University of Tokyo; however, nothing is known on their production and purpose. My research revealed that they are distributed to be in the 5 places in the world and their purpose is clarified. Further, it was shown in this study that Chikusai Kato captured how to illustrate plants in a unique way. Under his background of the traditional Kano School, he learned how to illustrate plants according to western ways under the influence of Philipp Franz von Siebold. Actually Keiga Kawahara who worked solely for Siebold learned western illustrations of plants and animals by the guidance of C.H. de Villeneuve, who was asked to come to Japan towards the end of Edo period by Siebold. This link was clarified by the Paulownia tomentosa xylotheque preserved at Harvard University.
