Softcover. Condition: Good. Soon after Japan was opened up to the West in 1868, a new world opened up to the Japanese painters. In the midst of an atmosphere of rapid change and many new influences, some painters chose to immerse themselves in tradition; some looked almost entirely to the West for inspiration; and still others chose to transcend the past by merging Japanese tradition and Western influences. This last group of artists devoted themselves to the art known as Nihonga. Nihonga selects and incorporates many trends and traditions, from Chinese literati painting to abstract expressionism. This study examines the first century of the development of Nihonga, from the middle decades of the 19th century through modern masterpieces of abstraction and representation created in the 1960s. Published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Saint Louis Art Musuem, it represents a collaboration of American and Japanese scholars on the art of Nihonga. The catalogue, undertaken with the support of the Japan Foundation and prepared with the cooperation of 80 Japanese museums, corporations and individuals, features 171 works by 61 artists, including framed paintings, folding screeens, fusuma (sliding wood doors), hanging scrolls, handscroll and albums.

First Edition
Hardcover. First Edition [1995], so stated. First Edition [1995], so stated. Near Fine in Near Fine DJ: Both book and DJ show only minute indications of use. The Book shows just a hint of bumping at the upper corner tips; else flawless; the binding is square and secure; text clean. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. Virtually 'As New'. The DJ shows only a touch of wear to the corner tips and the mildest rubbing to the panels, with a hint of toning along the front hinge and backstrip, no doubt due to sunning; unclipped. Overall, very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. Folio. (11.8 x 9.35 x 1.3 inches). 350 pages. Weight: 4 pounds, 3.5 ounces. Hardback with DJ. A lavishly illustrated study in both colour and black and white. 'Nihonga: Transcending the Past' is a valuable addition to the literature on Japanese arts. 'Nihonga' is a very broad field, and this book, its essays and illustrations, demonstrates very well the breadth of that artistic field. Especially from looking at the illustrations, I now have a better understanding of how Nihonga painting relates to contemporaneous (post-Ukiyo-e) printmaking in Japan. The accompanying scholarly essays, by Ellen P Conant and others, are excellent. The charting of the complicated relationships between Western and Japanese modernism, at the institutional levels as well as in terms of individual artists, is very revealing. The complexity of the 'mutual interference' of Western and Japanese cultural and associated political and economic interests is made very clear.
