Description

There is a textile archive spanning two centuries of Japan — from indigo-dyed cotton from the main islands to layers made from bark and fish skin worn by the Ainu in the far north. This book brings together the collection of Thomas Murray, with a foreword by Anna Jackson, curator of the Japanese textile collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum.

Across 520 pages with 500 color illustrations, the book explores everyday clothing, workwear, and ceremonial garments used throughout the Japanese archipelago from the late 18th century to the mid-20th century, following the philosophy of the Mingei movement. A valuable source of reference and inspiration for designers, artists, and anyone fascinated by Japanese aesthetics.
