OOP Kano Hogai Collection







Size: 10" x 12.5" - Pages: 104 - Published: 1979 - Price: $125 - Softcover










This is a must have reference book. Kano Hogai was a 19thC Japanese painter most famous for his dragons, falcon and Kannon images. He painted on silk scrolls, his style amazingly detailed, and his use of color more bold than his forefathers the ukiyo-e masters. This book boasts nice big full page images along with a couple of fold-outs - excellect for examining the intricate details in the illustrations. I have a 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.
