Book Synopsis
From the 1860s through to the early 20th century the rise of Japonisme and the Art Nouveau movement meant that few could ignore or resist the obsession with all things Japanese. This book includes examples of the designed and executed decorative arts of the Meiji periods from the Khalili Collection.

Trade Review
'A persuasive, sumptuous exploration of Japanese influence on western modernism … pairings of paintings by Monet, Manet and Degas with Japanese works, and discussions of gold-adorned Klimt and sexy Schiele, are revelatory' - Financial Times (Books of the Year)
'Invaluable for anyone with an interest in late-19th-century European art and culture' - Country Life
'In-depth essays and superb colour illustrations' - Ceramic Review
'If art books were nominated for annual awards … then 'Japonisme and the Rise of the Modern Art Movement' would definitely be a front-runner in the "most beautiful book category for 2013"' - Art Eyewitness
