Hardcover. New York, Harper & Row Publishers, 1st, 1983, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, 48 pages. Hardcover. Color and b/w illustrations throughout. Gallery price tag on cover. In great shape for its age. Just a small bit of smudging on front flyleaf. Beautiful full-page color plates. Artist illustrations on front and back covers. From the front flap: "The whole of the colorful and boisterous history of ukiyo-e-- the art of Japanese woodblock prints that arose in the seventeenth century and declined in the nineteenth--can be virtually summarized in the works of two great artists, Okumura Masanobu and Katsushika Hokusai. ...Of the two, Masanobu (1686-1764) was undoubtedly the more influential, for he was the major artistic force of the formative years of the art... This book, which presents a concise overview of Masanobu's life and works, is the first in the English language to be devoted solely to this early master."

Edo: Art in Japan 1615-1868Singer, Robert T.

Edo: Art in Japan 1615-1868


Singer, Robert T.

Hardcover. New Haven, CT, Yale University Press, 1st, 1998, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, 480 pages. Oversize hardcover with dust jacket. A very clean, unmarked copy with only minor wear to dust jacket edges. This lavishly produced catalog accompanies an exhibition of Edo-era art at the National Gallery in Washington. Edo, as Tokyo was known before 1868, was the cradle of a bold aesthetic that blurred the boundaries between traditional artistic disciplines and flourished in the centuries of national isolation enforced by the Tokugawa shogunate. Led by Robert T. Singer, curator of Japanese art at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, a team of scholars has assembled an impressive array of painting, ceramics, lacquer, textiles, woodblock prints, armor, and sculpture; many pieces have never been seen outside Japan. Rather than displaying the works by medium, the curators have chosen to divide them thematically into six groups: Ornament; Samurai; Work; Religion and Festivals; Travel, Landscape, and Nature; and Entertainment. Each section is introduced with an essay and packed with color plates, more than 300 in all.

These illustrations were selected from woodblock-printed covers and frontispiece illustrations from 64 popular books published in Osaka from 1898 through 1903. They include samurai and strong men, demons and detectives, courtesans, sumo wrestlers, and other vivid characters in scenarios ranging from romantic to grotesquely violent. Printed in the color woodblock method in use since the late eighteenth century, they provide a link between an ancient storytelling tradition and the beginning of mass-published popular literature.
