Japanese textiles in the Victoria and Albert Museum

Abstract

This lavishly illustrated volume presents highlights from the V&A's extensive collection of Japanese textiles and dress, which is one of the finest in the West. Ranging from sumptuous embroidered kimonos and woven actors' robes to the indigo-dyed textiles of rural Japan, this book explores the various techniques that have been employed by Japanese textile artists in the production of woven, printed and embroidered textiles from the seventeenth century to the present day.
