Uittreksel

"The newest catalogue, Masterpieces from the Nezu Collection, New Edition, will consist of twelve volumes, organized by field. The information in it will reflect recent research and will be presented in a straightforward, accessible manner. Since our concept is that the content of these volumes will be made available to the world as a digital archive, all the descriptions of works will be translated into English, another distinctive feature of this catalogue. This seventh volume, Buddhist Painting, is a separate catalogue of the works included in the 'Objects of Religious Arts' section of the former four-volume Catalogue of Selected Masterpieces from the Nezu Collections reorganized and supplemented with newly introduced works. The National Treasure Nachi Waterfall and numerous works designated Important Cultural Properties are presented along with pieces newly discovered to have art historical value through research and recent restoration, for a total of seventy-eight"-- Preface, Kōichi Nezu (page [e-3]).
