About this book

In a unique fusion of art and pyrotechnic innovation, discover the history of Japanese fireworks in this collection of woodblock illustrations by Jinta Hirayama.

Originally published as a catalogue in the late-nineteenth century, this edition celebrates the craftsmanship, precision, and visual splendour of the Hirayama Fireworks Company's early print designs. Celebrating the cultural and scientific significance of traditional Japanese fireworks, known as hanabi, or Fire Flowers, these extraordinary designs showcase the beauty of early Japanese pyrotechnics.

Known for creating the patent for the modern firework, Hirayama's captivating prints display the craftsmanship and visual spectacle of the first modern fireworks. From delicate sparklers to grand aerial spectacles, discover the elegance of nineteenth-century firework design in this new collection perfect for those interested in the artistry and history of fireworks.
