OVERSIZE! Additional shipping charges may be requested for international & priority orders. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "Ja…panese dolls (ningyo) have played an important cultural role in Japanese society since its earliest stages of development, as talismanic figures, center-pieces in elaborate festivals, medical study tools, theater distractions, decorative objects, and avidly collected art forms, as well as childhood playthings. This first comprehensive book on antique Japanese dolls published in English focuses on six of the primary categories of dolls - gosho palace dolls, hina Girl's Day dolls, musha Boy's Day dolls, isho costume dolls, theatrical dolls, and dolls connected with health and medical practices - made during the Edo period (1615-1868) when ningyo culture was at its peak. The principal forms of the dolls and their history, stylistic development, cultural context, and economic imperatives are discussed against the backdrop of Edo-period society and popular culture. Beautifully detailed color photographs of ningyo drawn from private collections, many of which are published here for the first time, as well as images of related materials selected from celebrated museum and temple collections, such as folding screens, woodblock prints, sculpture, painting, ceramics, and textiles help to place the dolls in context. The book, which includes much information never before published in English, is complemented by an extensive glossary and bibliography. / Alan Pate has been appointed guest curator for an exhibition on Japanese dolls at the Mingei International Museum." - Publisher. Size: Folio. Collectible.

Hardback. Condition: New. A glimpse into the markets, crafts, and signage of early modern Japan Kanban are the traditional signs Japanese merchants displayed on the street to advertise their presence, represent the products and services to be found inside their shops, and lend a sense of individuality to the shops themselves. Cr…eated from wood, bamboo, iron, paper, fabric, gold leaf, and lacquer, these unique objects evoke the frenetic market scenes of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Japan, where merchants created a multifaceted world of symbol and meaning designed to engage the viewer and entice the customer. Kanban provides a tantalizing look at this distinctive fusion of art and commerce. This beautifully illustrated book traces the history of shop signs in Japan, examines how they were created, and explores some of the businesses and trades they advertised. Some kanban are elongated panels of lacquered wood painted with elegant calligraphy and striking images, while others are ornately carved representative sculptures of munificent deities or carp climbing waterfalls. There are oversized functional Buddhist prayer beads, and everyday objects such as tobacco pipes, shoes, combs, and writing brushes.The book also includes archival photographs of market life in "old Japan," woodblock prints of bustling marketplaces, and images of the goods advertised with these intricate and beguiling objects. Providing a look into a unique, handmade world, Kanban offers new insights into Japan's commercial and artistic roots, the evolution of trade, the links between commerce and entertainment, and the emergence of mass consumer culture. Exhibition schedule: Mingei International Museum, San Diego April 15-October 15, 2017.
