Japan, Its Architecture, Art, And Art Manufactures
Christopher Dresser
The author of this work, an architect and ornamentalist by profession with a solid knowledge of manufacturing, went to Japan after the Meiji Restoration to observe what an ordinary traveller would not notice. The result is an absorbing and informative work on all aspects of building and the decorative arts for which we shall be always in his debt. From temples to carpentry tools, from candlesticks to theatre design, all are displayed and described here.
