Japan in art and industry. : With a glance at Japanese manners and customs

Régamey, Félix, 1844-1907 · 1893 · London : Saxon · 90 pictures

Félix Régamey's 1893 London account of Japanese art, craft industries and daily life, drawn and written by a French artist for English-language readers curious about Japan. Brush-and-pen line sketches show seated women in kimono, a scribe writing with brush and inkstone, and a courtier in robes, all open contour with no shading — usable as spot figures and silhouettes.
