Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. No Jacket. English text; Paperback; 20 x 24.6 cm; 1 Kg; 256 pages with colour Illustrations throughout; Catalogue from the exhibition held at the Royal Academy of Arts, London from the 3rd of July to the 28th of September 1997.; Used with signs of wear on the exterior. Interior as new.; Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) holds an assured place in the history of world art as one of the greatest and best-loved masters of the woodblock print. Together with Katsushika Hokusai, he is the leading creator of landscape imagery in japanese printmaking. Acclaimed in the West as "the artist of mist, snow and rain", Hiroshige certainly possesses a poetic sensibility particularly well attuned to evoking atmospheric effects. Hiroshige is a master of the passing moment, subtly orchestrating a wide range of colours to articulate mood. Including maps, a chronology, glossary and bibliography, this volume offers an excellent introduction to the mainly-sided oeuvre of an artist who, perhaps more specifically "Japanese" than Hokusai, was described by Pisarro as a "marvellous Impressionist".

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. English text; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 30 x 32 cm; 3.9 kg; 480 pages with colour illustrations.; Catalogue from the exhibition held at the National Gallery of Art, Washington from 15 November 1998 through 15 February 1999.; Used with signs of wear on the exterior and interior. The dust jacket shows edge wear, scuffs and scratches, and a small tear at the top left side of the front cover. Interior with minor signs of wear. Good condition overall.; The West's understanding of historical Japan is almost wholly based on works of art from the Edo period - screen paintings of landscape settings and city life, woodblock prints of sumo wrestlers, kabuki actors, and courtesans; brilliantly colored porcelains; exquisite textiles made for no theater or wealthy patrons. One hallmark of Edo art is the lack of distinction between "high art" and "crafts": an artist was as likely to design a lacquer box or a ceramic bowl as to paint on paper or silk. This lavishly illustrated book presents examples of Edo art in all media, discussed in the context of ornament, samurai arts, work, religion and festivals, landscapes and travel, and entertainment. Experts in the field have written essays that address the themes and entries that focus on the individual works of art.

Interior with minor signs of wear.; This edition of One Hundred Famous Views of Edo uses an original typeface designed by Alpha Omega especially for this book. The typeface is called Hiroshige, in honor of the artist of this series. The type is designed to create an active interplay between the text and the full-page illustrations, with an Asian, calligraphic flair.; Hiroshige's One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, actually composed of 118 splendid woodblock landscape and genre scenes of mid-nineteenth-century Tokyo, is one of the greatest achievements of Japanese art. The series, reproduced here in its entirety for the first time in a Western edition, contains many of Hiroshige's best-loved and most extraordinary prints. It is a celebration of the style and world of Japan's finest cultural flowering at the end of the shogunate. Like Venice and Florence in the 14th and 15th centuries, or Paris in the age of the Impressionists, the city of Edo, with its superb landmarks and its festive display of a uniquely elegant urban life, exerts a special and compelling fascination. Hiroshige, perhaps the most brilliant of the ukiyo-e printmakers, revealed the panorama of his city's activities with subtle and vivid visual anecdotes: fireworks seen from the river, fashionable geishas on parade, the kabuki district at night, intimate moments in the gardens and teahouses. But more than a historical document, the views are really vignettes presented from a remarkable variety of vantage points-aerial perspectives, multiple viewpoints, framed repoussoirs - and incorporate the natural beauty and atmospheric effects of every season crisp autumn moonlight, cherry blossoms and irises in the spring, summer rain on the waterways, and temples in the winter snow. It is a tour de force of artistic vision and printmaking craftsmanship that epitomizes the inventiveness of ukiyo-e art. This volume is printed in Japan and has been reproduced from an exceptionally fine, first-edition set in the Brooklyn Museum of Art to insure maximum fidelity to the original prints. The set is completed by a supplementary design and table of contents. In his introduction, Henry D. Smith II explains the world of Edo in its twilight before the Meiji Restoration and the beginnings of a modem urban society. Each plate is accompanied by a commentary that discusses its artistic and cultural interest in detail. For anyone interested in Japan, the One Hundred Famous Views of Edo is perhaps the finest guide and one of the greatest legacies Imaginable.

Good readable/working copy.; The new wave - a term referring to the revival in Japanese woodblock printmaking during the early decades of the twentieth century - presents a comprehensive and authoritative picture of the important, but often neglected shin hanga ('new prints') of the Taisho (1912-1926) and early Showa (1926-1989) periods. The fully-illustrated publication contains three essays: an art historical overview of the developments of shin hanga (Donald Jenkins); a discussion of the pioneering role of the publisher Watanabe Shôzaburô (Henry D. Smith II and Okamoto Hiromi); and an introduction to western artists working in Japan during the formative years of the shin hanga movement (Julia Meech). The largest portion of the publication consists of over 300 annotated entries for each work (Amy Reigle Stephens). The new wave includes all the major figures of the shin hanga movement such as Hashiguchi Goyo, Ito Shinsui, Yamamura Koka and Torii Kotondo as well as over fifty lesser-known artists. In addition, in an attempt to set the stage for the development of the shin hanga movement, the publication also comprises the works by artists of the earlier Meiji period (1868-1912) such as Kobayashi Kiyochika, Kaburagi Kiyokata, Yoshu Chikanobu, Ogata Gekko and others, and by western artists working in Japan. All of the works are drawn from the impressive Robert O. Muller collection, the largest of its kind in the field of shin hanga.
