Maomao Mortar & Herbs Vol. 1 Cover Poster – The Apothecary Diaries

Before the poisonings, the consorts and Jinshi, there was a girl with a mortar and a pile of leaves. This Maomao volume 1 poster is the cover that started the manga: the apothecary at work, completely absorbed.

Maomao mortar and herbs poster, volume 1 cover

Maomao kneels in a green robe and a purple skirt, a white ribbon in her hair and twin braids falling forward, dropping a leaf into a white mortar she holds in one hand. A bandage peeks out at her wrist. Sprigs of fresh herbs lie in front of her, and a pale green leaf pattern fills the background. The black 薬屋のひとりごと title runs down the left with the purple の badge, the number 1 at the top and gold lattice corners at the bottom. Grinding remedies is what she was raised on in the pleasure district, long before the rear palace.
