It challenges misconceptions that foreign influence diluted the supposed authenticity of Japanese art during this era. Instead, Rosina Buckland highlights the development of distinctively Japanese artistic practices in response to new stimuli from overseas. The book also dispels assumptions of artistic decline in the early Meiji era by examining the period from 1865 to 1885. Meticulously researched and beautifully illustrated, this captivating book showcases the resilience, innovation, and enduring beauty of Japanese art during a transformative period marked by Japan's global engagement and artistic evolution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosina Buckland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789148553\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789148558\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reaktion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/29\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Rosina Buckland","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44809733505279,"sku":"9781789148558","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_083382e1-bc8b-4718-be2a-a524b6f74514.jpg?v=1707927328","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-splendour-of-modernity-rosina-buckland-9781789148558","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
