5.0 out of 5 stars "Some small woodblock prints", January 15, 2000
By 
An outstanding catalogue of a significant collection ignored by earlier "specialists" who catalogued the Wright collection (and labeled the box of surimono as "small woodblock prints").

Ms. Mirviss applies her considerable knowledge of Japanese art and her expertise in the peculiarities of the (nearly illegible) script used for the poetry to bring this collection to life. Her unfailing artistic eye makes to this potentially confusing print genre accessible to the Western audience - and even modern Japanese.

Stunning illustrations of previously unpublished or rarely seen works enhance the richness and pleasure of this catalogue and complement the descriptive text and translations.
