A Japanese collection
A Japanese collection is a late nineteenth-century art book compiled by Michael Tomkinson and published in London by G. Allen in 1898, presenting Japanese art to an English readership. The pictures are reproductions of prints and drawings, including a moonlit night scene of pines, a circular medallion of figures on a chrysanthemum-patterned ground, and a red-line drawing of a figure beside a tree and a house, offering designers examples of tight framing, circular vignettes and dense textured backgrounds.
