"The artists of Japan were often skilled in poetry. One such was Yosa Buson (1716-1783), who was famous both for his pictures in the Chinese style and his verses in the Japa…nese form called haiku. His artistic manner derives from that of the scholar painters of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century China. He is with Taiga (1723-1776), one of the two most outstanding exponents of this bunjinga (scholars' painting) in Japan in the eighteenth century. There is no dry academicism in his work. The Chinese discipline of painting has never found in Japan an interpreter of greater poetic sensibility. Its perennial vitality is demonstrated in the stimulus it afforded to his genius." From 'The Faber Gallery of Oriental Art' series. Some minor shelf wear to jacket. The booklet is in excellent condition with no inscriptions.
