How colour is used in the most famous works of Japanese art from the 16th century to the present.From the vibrant reds of traditional kimonos to the serene blues of tarashikomi riverscapes and woodblock prints, this book shows that colour itself is a leading figure in Japan's long and varied artistic tradition.Whether you are a collector of Japanese art, a student of art history, or simply captivated by the rich shades, tones and hues that Japanese art presents, Colors in Japanese Art is your key to understanding this extraordinary artistic tradition.This book presents over 120 great works of fine and decorative art and discusses the colour schemes used in each work, including:The vibrant red, gold, multi-hued kimonos from the 18th and 19th century Edo periodThe gold, green and deep-blue season-themed screens of Tohaku and SesshuThe elegant pinks and blues in the landscape prints of Hiroshige and HokusaiThe blues, reds and yellows in the Ko-Kutani and Imari porcelains of the Edo and Meiji periodsEarthy golds in fine lacquerwares dating as far back as the Heian periodAnd so many more colours in over 120 magnificent examples!A detailed analysis of each work shows how these colour schemes evolved; how their popularity waxed and waned over time; the social and spiritual significance of certain colour combinations; and the pigments and dyes used to create them.Colour swatches accompany the featured artworks to show readers how colours were used in subtle combinations, including many hues, tones and tints unique to the Japanese arts. A colour chart at the end of the book summarises the beautiful colours that are most characteristic of this tradition.

Trade Paperback. Condition: Good. Paper in jacket with belly band jacket. Spine creased, binding a bit shaken but holding. 2006 Trade Paperback. 397, [2] pp. Japanese text. This beautifully illustrated volume presents Japanese paintings, textiles, and traditional crafts which feature three highly significant motifs of Japanese culture: waves, clouds, and pines. One of the most iconic and enduring images from Japanese art is Hokusai's famous Great Wave, a painting largely credited with inspiring the French artists of the nineteenth century, mainly the impressionists, to see depth and perspective from a unique, perhaps Japanese, viewpoint. The Japanese have many different words for clouds, the use of which depends on the season, the shape of the cloud, or the particular situation. Clouds in Japanese art are often depicted in unique iconography that is in sharp contrast to traditional Western portrayals. In early Japanese society, traditional performing arts, including Noh, were often performed under pine trees. Pine trees are regarded as sacred objects and are still often seen in the backgrounds of Noh theaters today. It is rare for a Japanese artist or photographer to present an aesthetically beautiful landscape without pine trees, as is evident in the many illustrations and photographs in this book. Over 120 works dating from the fifteenth century through the present are featured in Wave, Cloud, Pine.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The pinnacle of Japanese sumi-e painting, from great masters such as Sesshu and Tohaku to fantastical painters such as Shouhaku and Jakuchu. Sumi-e ink painting is a uniquely Eastern form of painting that originated and developed in China in the 9th century. This book introduces the history of sumi-e painting over a period of approximately 500 years, beginning with the Kamakura and Namboku-cho periods when the form was first being adopted in Japan, and then the Muromachi period when Sesshu and Shubun were active, and finally the Momoyama and Edo periods when Japanese influences led to the creation of unique works. This book introduces five centuries of ink wash painting through these works, exploring the distinctive qualities of Japanese ink wash painting and considering the role it has played in the history of art in Japan and its significance in the history of Japanese culture.From the IntroductionFeatured Sumi-e Artist/Keyword ListSesshu Toyo / Sesson Shukei / Hasegawa Tohaku / Kaiho Yusho / Kano Motonobu / Kano Eitoku / Unkoku Togan / Hon'ami Koetsu / Miyamoto Musashi / Kano Sansetsu / Kano Tanyu / Kusumi Morikage / Tawaraya Sotatsu / Ogata Korin / Hakuin Ekaku / Sengai Gibon / Fugai Ekun / Otsu-e / Soga Shohaku / Ito Jakuchu / Maruyama Okyo / Ike no Taiga / Yosa Buson / Katsu Jagyoku / Gessen / Uragami Gyokudo / Mori Sosen / Mori Tetsuzan / Goshun (Matsumura Gekkei) / Nagasawa Rosetsu / Sakai Hoitsu / Tani Buncho / Tanomura Chikuden / Yamoto Baiitsu / Sugai Baikan / Watanabe Kazan / Kawanabe Kyosai / Tomioka Tessai / Yokoyama TaikanColumsWater and Ink: Infinite GradationsThe Zen Koan and the World of Zen PaintingInk Wash Paintings by a WarriorInk Wash Paintings by Zen PriestsSoga Shohaku's Ink Wash PaintingsInk Wash Painting Techniques Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
