Fifty Years of New Japan

Excerpt from Japan and Its Art The reasons which induced the compilation of this Handbook, and the plan upon which it is arranged, are stated at length on page 2 of the Prologue. It differs from the majority of works which deal with the Art of Japan in the following particulars: - (a) It aims at giving an idea of the country, its history, its customs, religion, and inhabitants, as we see them portrayed in Art. (b) It is an expression of the opinions, not only of all the best authorities (authors and collectors), whether European or American, upon the subject, but of a competent Japanese expert. (c) No book of its size covers so much ground, or is so fully illustrated. (d) It is issued at a cheaper price than any other English manual. The bulk of the matter comprised in the volume has appeared in the Art Journal, but the whole has been revised and much added to.

The term japonisme was coined in 1872 by the French critic and collector Philippe Burty to describe a range of European borrowings from Japanse art.
