Hiroshige: Birds and Flowers (ISBN 0807611999)

Stunning Printing Quality and Perfect Color...:
... coupled with a large format and excellent translations, makes this the single most important volume for lovers of Hiroshige, and especially for those fond of his kacho-ga (birds and flowers). This is not just another art book. You won't understand until you see it. And you must see it.

Simply gorgeous!:
This is simply one of the most beautiful books ever published (on any subject)!!! Hiroshige has collected some of the most attractive Japanese color prints ever created, replete with Japanese poetry and translations. I literally could not put this book down -- I also gasped in awe several times. Braziller has done a wonderful job -- the book is coffee table sized and is bound with quality and workmanship. This is a class act in all regards. Some might balk at the price tag, but believe me it is well worth it!

a gift:
A beautiful book: the colors sing. This is joyful, breathtaking, work from one of the world's true artists, of any period. A wonderful gift.

Thoughtful and beautiful:
This is a catalogue worth studying and lingering over. Hiroshige's brilliant art is no surprise, but the introductory text is unusually fine.
