Featuring hundreds of illustrations,Japanese Prints: From Early Masters to the Modernis a comprehensive history and survey of Japans most famous visual art form.
The author, Mr. Michener has illustrated the book with lesser-known masterpieces rather than with those few prints that have been reproduced almost ad nauseam. Unlike earlier books, this does not stop with the past century, but brings the subject completely up to date, introducing, in the modern Japanese print, some of the most exciting art being created in Japan--and in the world--today.
Japanese Printsalso becomes a revealing account of the collecting of Japanese prints, with many valuable hints to collectors based upon the authors own experiences in gathering together one of the best print collections of recent years: it is a collecting field in which many hints are needed, with prices varying from $5 to $5,000 per print, and with forgeries and doubtful attributions on every hand.
