Overview

An in-depth study of the role played by dealers and collectors in the late 19th and early 20th centuries when the Western craze for East-Asian art was at its peak. The book comprises an overview of Japonisme and the translation into English of two important French texts detailing the trade in Asian art at this time: Notes d'un Bibeloteur au Japon by the art dealer Philippe Sichel and Souvenirs d'un vieil amateur d'art de l'extreme-orient by the collector Raymond Koechlin. Both translations are extensively annotated. A discussion of the content and significance of Sichel and Koechlin are also included.
