5.0 out of 5 stars Appreciative review on shodou history, May 20, 2004

Mikko Tuohiniemi (Helsinki, Finland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Traces of the Brush: The Art of Japanese Calligraphy (Hardcover)
The authors' sincere appreciation of the art of shodou is convincingly mediated to the reader. Especially the colorful and illustrative praising of kana calligraphy impressed me.
The high-quality images of the ancient masterpieces play an important role occupying a plenty of page space.
Just remember that this is a book on history, attitudes and ways of looking at the japanese calligraphy. This in not a text on calligraphy techniques. Comprehensive instructions on shodou are excluded from this book.
