At
the restaurant "Kajiiketei" near my house, a pressed flower craft
club of ladies who are often dining at this restaurant opened their works
exhibition.

However,
I don’t know about pressed flower craft and its history of Japan at all.
So,
I quoted below from oshibana.com :
In
Japan it was said that Takizawa Bakin, a writer, was making pressed flower
craft books during the Edo period, and at that time gardening became popular,
and as a collection of changed Japanese morning-glories, many people pressed
flower craft books were made.
After the World WarⅡ, the method of designing with pressed flower craft has gradually
spread, and in recent times the painting expression of pressed flowers craft
has become widespread, and many people pursue their artistic qualities.
In
addition, it is difficult to dry in Japan with high humidity, so it can be said
that the technique of pressed flowers craft developed rather rapidly and spread
rapidly.
私の家の近くにあるレストラン『梶池亭』で、このレストランで良く会食されるご婦人方の押し花クラブが作品展示会を開いておりました。
私は押し花なのことは知らないので oshibana.comから下記を引用しました：
日本では江戸時代に作家の滝沢馬琴が押し花帳を作っていたと言われており、当時は園芸が流行し、変化朝顔のコレクションとして、多くの人によって押し花帳が作られていたそうです。
戦後、押し花でデザインする手法が徐々に広がり、最近では押し花の絵画的な表現が普及し、その芸術性を追求する人も多くなりました。
加えて、湿度の高い日本では乾燥しにくいため、かえって押し花の技術が発達し、急速に普及していったと言えるでしょう。
