Written at a time when Japanese art was only beginning to be appreciated in the West, "Impressions of Japanese Architecture" conveys a sense of discovery and enthusiasm that modern readers will find as interesting and infectious as the book's first readers did. Long considered a classic, this new edition contains a foreword by acclaimed contemporary architect and author, Mira Locher. Originally published about one hundred years ago, "Impressions of Japanese Architecture" is still of immense value to anyone wishing for a better understanding of Japanese architecture, art and culture.
