"Sonan Gafu" (also known as "Album de Dessins de Sonan") is a renowned Japanese art book composed of woodblock prints, created by the artist Onishi Chinnen (1792–1851). Published in the Edo period, specifically in 1834, the work is a significant example of the "gafu" genre, which refers to Japanese picture books containing collections of woodblock prints that often depict a variety of subjects, including flora, fauna, and genre scenes.

Onishi Chinnen was an accomplished painter and printmaker, and his "Sonan Gafu" is celebrated for its delicate and detailed depictions of plants and flowers, showcasing his expertise in the kachō-ga (bird-and-flower painting) tradition. The album reflects the aesthetic values of the Edo period and provides insight into the era's artistic practices and the appreciation of natural beauty in Japanese culture.

The "Sonan Gafu" is composed of a series of prints that are characterized by their vibrant colors and intricate compositions. Chinnen's work is noted for its technical precision and the lifelike quality of the subjects he portrays. The album has been influential in the development of Japanese art, particularly in the genre of nature studies, and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic merit and historical significance.

As a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of Japanese art, "Sonan Gafu" remains an important work for understanding the evolution of woodblock printing techniques and the cultural context of the Edo period. The album is not only a testament to Onishi Chinnen's skill as an artist but also an enduring legacy of the rich tradition of Japanese woodblock printing.
