Details

This outstanding reference details how the art movement, Japonisme, made its way to America. Japonisme was a term originally coined by the French to describe the popularity and influence of Japanese art and design in Western Europe in the 19th century following the forced opening of Japan in 1858. Shortly after making its impact in Europe, Japonisme made its force felt in the new world. This book is particularly useful to collectors of work by Arthur Wesley Dow, Helen Hyde, and Bertha Lum.
