The colour prints of Japan : an appreciation and history
Edward Fairbrother Strange's 1906 London history of Japanese colour prints, published by A. Siegle, written for a European art audience and illustrated with reproductions of ukiyo-e woodblock prints. The pictures show courtly and everyday figures, a lantern-lit garden scene, a summer riverside view, and sketchy comic figures, offering a designer examples of flat colour, patterned kimono textiles, and compositions built on vertical bands of figures.
