Style Japon

New, expanded edition

Japanese style is an aesthetic that is instantly recognisable - an exposed flower, elegant calligraphy or a simple rock garden - but it is also difficult to define.

Written by one of the world's most respected experts on Japanese art and culture, this book helps to define Japanese style. Illustrated with over 150 stunning images that reveal the essence of Japanese art and culture, it examines specific achievements in Japanese art and architecture and offers an in-depth analysis of Japanese culture as a whole, its vision of the world and humanity.
