Focusing on the Heian period (795-1185) through the Edo period (1615-1868), this generously illustrated volume brings the rich Shinto artistic tradition to life through works of calligraphy, painting, sculpture, and the decorative arts. Thematic essays authored by both American and Japanese scholars explore different dimensions of kami veneration and examine the significance of these objects--many of which have never been seen outside of Japan--in Shinto ceremonies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for the Cleveland Museum of Art \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCleveland Museum of Art\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (04\/09\/19-06\/30\/19)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sin饌d Vilbar, Kevin Carr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300237014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300237016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cleveland Museum of Art\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/04\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.30h x 10.30w x 1.40d","brand":"Sin饌d Vilbar","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44181070577919,"sku":"9780300237016","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_afaa9fb8-58a9-48ac-a0d1-460d8bd720e9.jpg?v=1690258391","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/shinto-sinad-vilbar-9780300237016","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
