Book | The Tale of Genji - Colors of the fifty-four chapters
*This book is written in both English and Japanese.
In the Japanese literary classic The Tale of Genji, Murasaki Shikibu vividly portrays the richness and diversity of Japan’s seasonal colors through the beautifully layered garments worn by the noble women and men of each story, described from various characters’ perspectives.
This book features detailed color illustrations faithfully recreating the palettes of The Tale of Genji, along with selected texts focusing on dyeing techniques and color materials, presented with English translations throughout. What kinds of garments did the characters wear, and what emotions were expressed through the layering of colors? A fascinating book not only for those interested in Japanese history, but also for anyone passionate about color and design.
