{"product_id":"geisha-maiko-of-kyoto-john-foster-9780764332210","title":"Geisha \u0026 Maiko of Kyoto: Beauty, Art, \u0026 Dance","description":"This exquisite collection of photographs and interviews focuses on four of Kyoto's most beautiful geisha and maiko (apprentice geisha). First, the geisha and maiko were photographed at Kyoto's largest geisha dance performances and other important dances. Next, portrait sessions were held with each woman to capture the kata (forms or poses) of her favorite dances. The geisha and maiko were then interviewed about their photographs, giving the reader a rare insight into their artistic training. Finally, images follow one maiko from her last few days as an apprentice through her first few days as a geisha. Never before has the change from maiko to geisha been documented so completely. The result is a collection of 149 gorgeous photographs that shed light on these exquisitely beautiful women like no other book before.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Foster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 076433221X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780764332210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Schiffer Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/03\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.70w x 0.80d","brand":"John Foster","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43947111645439,"sku":"9780764332210","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_8c7e82ce-c10e-40be-b68b-b02a352b7a4f.jpg?v=1681516782","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/geisha-maiko-of-kyoto-john-foster-9780764332210","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
