Arts of Japan was originally published by Tuttle Publishing in print form in 1957. This book, "" in the words of the author, ""represents an attempt to fill a long-felt need for an account of the history of Japanese art which would deal with the crafts as well as with the so-called fine arts and carry the story of Japanese art up to the present day instead of ending with the death of Hiroshige."" The reader will quickly perceive how well this aim has been achieved. Here, in a stimulating and informative text and 121 well-selected plates?12 in full colour?is a dynamic treatme.
