Painting of the Realm: The Kano House of Painters in Seventeenth-Century Japan

Yukio Lippit
4.9/5 (34570 ratings)
Description:Winner of the John Whitney Hall Book PrizeWinner of the Charles Rufus Morey Book AwardIn this eloquent and far-ranging work, Yukio Lippit explores the seventeenth-century consolidation of Japanese painting by the famed Kano painting house, whose style evolved from the legacy of Zen monk-painters of the medieval era and intertwined Chinese with native Japanese practices. Legitimacy was transmitted from master to disciple in a manner similar to that in religious traditions. Lippit illuminates the role of key factors--bequeathal of artworks, authentication of art, painting in the mode of famous masters, collections of art, and the use of art in governance--in establishing the orthodoxy of the Kano painters and their paramount role in defining Japanese painting."The Painting of the Realm" is pathbreaking in its analysis of the discursive operations of the Kano school and its posing of large questions about painting that exceed narrow artist-centered, formalist analysis. Lippit has undertaken a bold and dense study of painting production and reception, presenting original and compelling interpretations.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
