Comments A superbly comprehensive and authorative overview of the "shin hanga" period, encompassing the late-Meiji, Taisho and early Showa periods, drawing unique depth from Robert O. Muller's multi-1000 print collection. Beginning with three essays outlining the historical development of the "shin hanga" movement, followed by an amazing selection of prints--each of which includes extensive notes, discussion and an in-depth biography for dozens of Japanese and Western artists from that period. Extensively illustrated, with 240 large color and 80 b/w illustrations. Unquestionably THE most sought-after and most highly recommended reference on shin hanga.
