Sumi - Illustrations by Inoue Takehiko







Size: 9” x 11.5” - Pages: 168 - Published: 2006 - Price: $58 - Softcover


This is another cool book of samurai imagery. It definitely leans more towards Japanese manga, but the illustrations are predominately full page...nice and bog and great for body positions, facial expressions and correct kimono flow. Lots of great stuff in this one. Takehiko does a great job capturing the Japanese sense of bushido....samurai heart in his characters....Mostly, as the title implies, monochrome illustrations.

Size: 8" x 11.5" - Pages: 84 - Price: $100 - Softcover


This is a cool exhibition catalog that features some of the more dark Japanese artwork. Kano Kazunobu imagery, Kyosai and Ekin are but a few of the artitsts featured within. 66 full page, full color plates of some amazing artwork. This is a must have for collectors. I have one copy now and if I don't have it in stock I will add you to our list and email you when I get another one in.
