Three sections provide a well-rounded look at the essence of Japanese culture: Shinto-Buddhist sculptures with screen paintings represent its classical view in terms of religion and aesthetics; woodblock prints and ivory carvings depict town and merchant life in the Edo period (the start of the Westernization of Japan); sword mounts represent the Samurai (perhaps the world's most famous warrior class). Beautifully produced. (Art Gallery of South Australia) No library descriptions found. |
