Seitei’s Birds and Flowers Painting Manual

Watanabe Seitei Japanese

Not on view

Watanabe Seitei is Meiji painter, print artist and book illustrator famous for his naturalistic pictures of fauna and flora in the Nihonga style. We earlier acquired a copy of this book through the bequest of Lincoln Kirstein, though this example is in better condition, so it would be good to upgrade so that we have a displayable version.
