World of Fine Arts (Bijutsu Sekai) : [volume 11]
World of Fine Arts is a Meiji-era Japanese art volume published in Tokyo in 1891 by Shun'yōdō, compiled and illustrated by Watanabe Seitei for a readership of artists and connoisseurs. Its pages pair ink-and-colour figure scenes with calligraphic text and monochrome landscapes, giving designers examples of restrained brushwork, flat colour areas and open space around figures.
