1st Edition
Western Sources of Japanese Art and Japonism V: Oeuvres choisies de critiques d'art, marchands d'art et collectionneurs sur le Japonisme
This is the fifth part of the successful series which provides art historians and students with vital primary source materials related to the reception of Japanese arts in Western societies during the period from the late nineteenth century to the early twentieth century. All materials are reproduced in facsimile reprint and include many plates and illustrations.
This new collection includes eight French writings by four authors—from different professional backgrounds: art critic, art dealer, art collector, and curator—who played an important role in the Japonism movement in France.
