The history, culture, and aesthetics of the Momoyama period are explored by analyzing and reproducing masterpieces of artists in many media: paintings (including many superb screen paintings), sculpture, calligraphy, tea ceremony utensils, lacquerware, ceramics, metalwork, arms and armor, textiles, and Noh masks. A team of leading scholars and specialists in Japanese art contributes an introduction to each section with an essay that places the individual works in a broader art-historical and cultural context.
This beautiful book reproduces works of art from temples and private collections in Japan which have rarely been seen, as well as the most famous masterpieces of the major museums. It also serves as the catalogue of an exhibition held at the Dallas Museum of Art in cooperation with the Japan Foundation and Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs.

From the Publisher:
Published in association with the Dallas Museum of Art
From the Back Cover:
"The finest one-volume overview of Japanese culture of the late sixteenth century, when ruling warlords competed in battle and in patronage of the arts."—San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle "A beautiful and informative book. . . . The range of art covered is stunning, from painting through sculpture, calligraphy, ceramics, lacquer and metal work, arms and armour, textiles and masks. . . . A complete revelation of Japanese artistry."—Stephanie Judson, Antiques Bulletin "Anyone interested in Japanese art and its history, or in this culturally important period of Japanese history, would be happy to have a copy of what is a magnificently produced book."—Hugh Cortazzi, Asian Affairs "Some books are to drool over. This is one. The illustrations are lavish, sumptuous, exotic, seductive. . . . This book gives fascinating insights into the history and culture of Japan."—Clare Henry, Glasgow Herald
