Uittreksel

"An Illustrated Mirror of Hawking is a translated, facsimile reprint of Kawanabe Tōiku's woodcut print picture book on falconry, Ehon takakagami (Mirror of Hawking). The first proper translation ever accomplished, the meaning of the script accompanying each woodcut illustration plate can now be known to non-Japanese readers. In addition to fully reprinting the original images and texts, this edition includes contextual essays by Karl-Heinz Gersmann, Keiya Nakajima, and Alain Briot, and reference images that provide important background information about Kyōsai, the history of Japanese falconry, and the origins of this unique publication"-- Provided by publisher.
