Japanese Masterworks: Paintings from the Indianapolis Museum of Art

Antiquarisch > Nieuwstaat

In this catalogue paintings are especially important -- hanging scrolls and folding screens -- by many of the best-known artists of the Edo period (1615-1868).

The paintings are illustrated in color, and a detailed entry accompanies each painting. The book also includes artist biographies and four essays on the history of Japanese painting. A short essay on Japanese painting collections in the American Midwest and an essay on the history of the Asian art collection at the Indianapolis Museum of Art complete the volume.
