Publisher Comments:

Written at the turn of the twentieth century by the era’s foremost authority on Oriental art, this concise volume focuses on the relationship between spirituality and Asian art. Ideals of the East, along with the author’s The Book of Tea, was among the earliest English-language accounts of the role of Zen Buddhism in art. It exercised enormous influence at the time of its publication and remains one of the most widely read books about Japanese culture.

Synopsis:

First published in 1883 and written by the foremost authority of the era, this extremely influential book offers a brief but concise introduction to Asian art. One of its major themes, the connections between spirituality and the evolution of Asian art, provided the earliest lucid English-language account of Zen Buddhism and its relation to the arts.
