Mit zahlr. Abb. Broschiert. Condition: Sehr gut. 33 S. Einband leicht berieben. - Hösten är den årstid då de viktigaste grödorna skördas, då naturen exploderar i färgprakt för att sedan vissna och synbarligen dö. I Kina är det yfn-krafternas årstid. Yin och yang är de kosmiska krafter som reglerar världen och tiden, där yin representerar kyla, regn och moln, natt och måne, jord, det mörka och fuktiga, det passiva och kvinnliga, medan yang representerar solsken och värme, vår och sommar, himmel, det ljusa och torra, det aktiva och manliga. Yang är förknippad med livets krafter, yin med sjukdom och död. Årstiderna ses som ett cykliskt växelspel mellan dessa två krafter. Under vår och sommar är det de livgivande yang-krafterna som dominerar, medan yin ständigt försvagas. Efter sommarsolståndet börjar yin växa, samtidigt som yang gradvis förlorar sin kraft. Efter höstdagjämningen har yin växt sig starkare än yang. Mitt i vintern vänder utvecklingen - yang börjar åter att växa medan yin ständigt försvagas. Hösten är sålunda den enda årstid då yin är oavbrutet i växande. sv Gewicht in Gramm: 550.

Near Fine in publishers decorated wrappers. 333pp. Illustrated throughout. This ambitious and groundbreaking publication accompanies an exhibition of highlights from the early ukiyo-e holdings of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Much of Boston's renowned collection of 'pictures of the floating world' (ukiyo-e), an incomparable record of Japanese life, was acquired from the Boston physician William Sturgis Bigelow in the early twentieth century. Subject to a loan restriction since 1928, most of this collection has never before been seen outside Boston. Many of the works have been newly photographed for this catalogue and are hitherto unpublished in this format. Illustrated throughout in colour, this book also features essays, artist biographies and exhaustive catalogue entries by leading scholars examining the stylistic nuances of early masters such as Hishikawa Moronobu and Okumura Masanobu; the techniques used by early ukiyo-e artists; and the history of the Boston collection, 'the finest collection of oriental art under one roof in the world'.
