In the case of Jeffrey Montgomery and his collection of Japanese art, all three of these elements interact in a surprisingly harmonious way. This volume presents 170 works from the 12th to 20th centuries--including textiles, furniture, paintings, religious and everyday items--carefully selected from the over 1,000 objects held by Jeffrey Montgomery's splendid collection. Renowned worldwide, the Montgomery Collection displays an extraordinary richness and a very singular substance: it is a collection of \"oriental art,\" and at the same time it expresses a \"folk culture\" reinterpreted in very elevated aesthetic terms by the elegant and refined choices made by the collector who had dedicated his entire life to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 10.7 x 9.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 30, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52157476307175,"sku":"9788857247724","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/8329\/8279\/files\/2f925b6d4c03670d3b5570816a75a983.webp?v=1780502100","url":"https:\/\/skinnonsmooth.myshopify.com\/products\/japan-arts-and-life-the-montgomery-collection-hardcover","provider":"SkinnOnSmooth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
