Produktbeschreibung

Besides the four distinct seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, the Japanese calendar recognises more nuanced seasonal changes in a subset of 24 periods that reflect the weather or the current state of flora and fauna. Although these slight transitions are quite difficult to perceive in our fast-paced modern lives, we are affected by them nonetheless. Also artworks cannot exist without a relationship to the seasons. This volume introduces works connected to these 24 seasonal periods, with a focus on artists who have deep ties with the city of Kyoto. The seasons are expressed in subtle details, such as the subject of a painting or the design of a kimono or ceramic vessel.
