TextPublication details: New York : Harper & Row, Publishers, c1972Edition: First icon editionDescription: ix, 161 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmISBN: 006430017XSubject(s): ART, JAPANESE | DECORATION AND ORNAMENT, JAPANESELOC classification: N 7350 .L44 1972

Contents:

Style, decorative style, and Japanese decorative style-- Decorative elements in the Buddhist art of Heian Period-- Yamato-e: the first flowering of Japanese decorative style-- The Muromachi interim-- The Momoyama and Edo Periods.

Summary: This small introduction to Japanese decorative style is a by-product of the exhibition of that name organized by The Cleveland Museum of Art and co-sponsored by the Art Institute of Chicago. The phenomenal growth of the public and private collections of Japanese art in the United States since the second World War is reflected in the catalogue of objects shown in the exhibition. A small measure of the still greater wealth of material conserved and registered in Japan can be had from the quality of the fourteen largely unpublished and unknown objects lent by the various generous lenders through the courtesy of the National Commission for Protection of Cultural Properties, Tokyo.
