A modern (2018) postcard sold by the British Library gift shop, reproducing a hand-coloured sunflower illustration from "Kai" (Vocabulary of Flowers), compiled by Shimanda Mitsufusa and Ono Ransan, 1750-65. The card has been used, bearing a handwritten note and a UK 1st class stamp (Henry VIII tournament armour design).
