Medical Chart by Ryojun Suzuki

Meiji period, dating to before 1874 / Sheet, ink on paper

A diagram of the body's workings by Suzuki's father, Ryōjun (1822-76), who served as official physician to the Honda family. Date and purpose are unknown, yet as it was stored by Suzuki in a paulownia-wood box along with the Eisei jūnijika and Shūshin jūnijika, it was likely a cherished memento of his father.
