Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. English text.; Paperback (with dust jacket).; 22 x 28 cm.; 0.3 kg; 64 pages with colour illustrations.; Used with signs of wear on the exterior, namely edge wear, scuffs and scratches. Minor peeling off the laminated layer on the bottom right side of the front cover. Interior in very good condition, apart from an ex-library stamp on title page.; Catalogue from an exhibition held at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford from 5th December 1989-14th January 1990 and at Christie's Great Rooms, 8 King Street, St. James's, London, SWI, 25th January-9th February 1990.; "One of the purposes of this exhibition is an attempt to clarify just what we mean when we use the word Kakiemon. Is it the name of a style, or of a series of related styles; is it the "name" of a family of potters, or of a family of enamellers, or of a family (or group) who were potters and decorators, or is it just the name of a kiln? This exhibition will, I think, show clearly that the word Kakiemon, though loosely associated in our minds with a particular style of remarkably beautiful enamelled Japanese porcelain, should in fact be used in differing ways at different times during the history of the manufacture of porcelain in and around Arita. We shall see that when the Kakiemon kiln itself was built, the shapes and styles made in that kiln do not all conform to our understanding, in even the widest terms, of the presently so-called Kakiemon style, nor was the manufacture of the Kakiemon style confined to the Kakiemon kiln - even the famous milky-white negoshide body was also made at other kilns." excerpt from the introductory text by Oliver Impey.
