This 1922 sale catalogue from the American Art Association illustrates Japanese colour prints from the collection of Alexis Rouart of Paris, with additions from the Vicomte de Sartiges and another Parisian collection, prepared for buyers and collectors. The pictures show interior scenes with seated figures and sliding screens, a standing woman in a patterned kimono beside a potted plant, a figure beneath blossoming branches, and a close bust portrait with elaborate hair ornaments, offering a designer clear examples of pattern-rich kimono textiles, hairstyles and compositional framing.
