Synopsis

"The Arts of Japan" is an illustrated, two-volume survey from prehistoric times to the mid-20th century, written by an acknowledged historian of the modern era. Every field of Japanese fine art and many decorative and folk arts are covered: sculpture, painting, architecture, garden design, ceramics, lacquer ware, textiles, and swords. This edition contains the complete text (first published in 1966) and all the illustrations of the original. This, the second volume, covers the period from the end of the 16th to mid-20th century. It records the appearance of a new epoch in Japanese art, when iconography became one of many areas in which artists worked. This fresh expressiveness has as much appeal to a modern audience as it did to the people of earlier times.
