Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published for the opening of the Toshiba Gallery of Japanese art at the Victoria & Albert Museum, this book celebrates and sets in context many of its greatest treasures. The Musuem's superb Japanese holdings, acquired over a period of one hundred and fifty years, started with the international exhibitions of the second half of the nineteenth century and the great private collections formed in Britain at the beginning of the twentieth. More recently they have been extended by the purchase of major pieces including exciting contemporary works by leading artists. The result is an unrivalled panorama of Japan's achievements in art and design from the earliest times, with particular emphasis on ceramics, lacquer, textiles, prints and metalwork of the last four centuries.
