Japanese Art Motives is a book written by Maude Rex Allen and published in 1917. The book is a comprehensive guide to the art motifs of Japan, covering a wide range of topics from traditional Japanese art forms such as painting, sculpture, and architecture, to the use of motifs in everyday objects such as textiles, ceramics, and lacquerware.The book is divided into chapters that focus on different aspects of Japanese art, including the use of nature motifs, the influence of Buddhism on Japanese art, and the use of color and pattern in Japanese design. Each chapter is illustrated with examples of Japanese art and design, providing readers with a visual guide to the motifs discussed in the text.In addition to its focus on Japanese art and design, the book also provides historical context for the development of Japanese art and its influence on Western art. It includes a detailed discussion of the Meiji Restoration and its impact on Japanese art, as well as an exploration of the influence of Japanese art on the Art Nouveau movement in Europe.Overall, Japanese Art Motives is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Japanese art and design, providing a comprehensive overview of the motifs and techniques that have made Japanese art so distinctive and influential.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
