A Japanese collection ...
A Japanese collection is a photographically illustrated art catalogue by Michael Tomkinson, published in London by G. Allen in 1898, documenting private holdings of Japanese art for collectors and connoisseurs. Its plates show carved ivory and porcelain figures and a tall decorated vase photographed against dark backgrounds, with crisp light and soft grey tones that a designer could use as a reference for sculptural modelling, figure poses and relief decoration.
