Tight binding, solid spine, clean unmarked text. Illustrated, 147 pages. Looks at the works of a modern Japanese textile designer who incorporates sixteenth century dyeing techniques into his luxurious kimonos. This is a gorgeous book. Itchiku Kubota’s work is amazing. His artwork on the kimonos is breat taking. The color photos demonstrate his sensitivity to the ever changing light and his understanding of using color, texture, scale, and movement in design.
