Originally published for the opening of the Toshiba Gallery of Japanese Art at the Victoria and Albert Museum, this book celebrates and sets in context many of the Museum"s greatest treasures from Japan. These superb holdings were formed through works acquired from the international exhibitions of the second half of the nineteenth century and the great private collections formed at the beginning of the twentieth. More recently they have been extended by the purchase of major pieces including exciting contemporary works by leading artists. The result is an unrivalled collection of Japan"s achievements in art and design, with particular emphasis on ceramics, lacquer, textiles, prints and metalwork of the last four centuries.
