Kimono, Japanese Design (Paperback)

The designs of these ten refined compositions were created by famous artists including William Morris, founder of the art nouveau movement; the Fauvists; and the Scottish paisley designers William Eadie and George Haite. Every title in the series contains ten sheets of wrapping paper, each four times larger than the book itself. The sheets, which are perforated for easy removal, are large enough to wrap large-format art and illustrated books. Or keep the wrapping paper for yourself to lend a note of distinction to your school books, drawer bottoms, boxes and valuable books! An introductory essay on the history of the textile industry and the artists and their designs complete each volume.
