It is comprised of some of the most relentlessly fearsome goblins, demons, metamorphosed animals and ghosts ever known to man. Japanese poets, actors, dancers, and artists have all delighted in portraying these monsters, often with a playfulness and humor that mitigates the demons' more ferocious qualities, but also with a bold, dramatic fervor designed to impress upon their audiences the lessons of folklore. For, like our own mythological and fairy-tale characters, Japan's supernatural inhabitants suggest much about the morals of the Japanese people and of their efforts to understand the mysteries of the world. This is the first book devoted to the study of the supernatural world and its representation in Japanese art. From the 17th to the 19th centuries many of Japan's most brilliant artists, including Hiroshige, Hokusai, Yoshitoshi, and Zeshin, allowed their imaginations free rein to present these mysteries in a variety of media, including paintings, woodblock prints, screens, netsuke and inro sculptures, and fans. The 49 color plates and 75 black and white illustrations presented here show a stunning array of Japan's most fiendish figures. Each of the ten chapters focuses on one of the most important themes in Japanese lore, discussing its anthropological meaning and literary and artistic interpretations. …

Interior with minor signs of wear.; Catalog published for the exhibition, A Myriad of Autumn Leaves: Japanese Art from the Kurt and Millie Gitter Collection, held at the New Orleans Museum of Art, November 13, 1983-January 15, 1984 and at The Walters Art Gallery, Baltimore, February 15-April 22, 1984.; "This is the second exhibition that the New Orleans Museum of Art has organized of works from the Gitter collection. The first, Zenga and Nanga Paintings by Japanese Monks and Scholars, was presented in 1976 and focused on artists of two particular schools of the Edo Period. The present exhibition, which includes only one work from the first show (the great Virtue calligraphy by the monk Hakuin), is broader in scope, with paintings from nearly all the major schools of the period, as well as ceramics and sculpture. However this exhibition also reflects the personal tastes and passions of the collectors. Works of the Nanga and Zenga schools predominate in the selection of paintings. The Gitters have a special admiration for three artists, who are among the greatest Japan has produced: Ike Taiga, Yosa Buson, and Hakuin Ekaku. These masters are represented in the exhibition by, respectively, seven, four, and five works each. Thus the exhibition retains the personal flavor of a private collection, while presenting a survey of Edo painting." excerpt from the preface.…
