NotesMade in Japana (on dust jacket) Hardcover. reprinted edition. hardback, 8th printing, folio measuring 15" x 10.5" (cm 38,10 x 26,67) This book presents Japan's finest gardens as interpreted by leading photographers and Teiji Itoh, preeminent spokesman for Japan's magnificent garden tradition. Beginning with early agricultural and religious practices, Professor Itoh describes how the major garden types-from microcosmic stone-and-gravel compositions and tea-ceremony settings to spacious landscapes for strolling-evolved from a rich mingling of native and foreign influences.
