Exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston - http://www.mfa.org/exhibitions/s...
This was such an amazing little exhibit... "little" in the sense that the artwork depicted was restricted to the size of a postcard.
From the late-Meiji through the beginning of the Showa eras - a time when Japan was trying to position itself as a major player on the world stage - the postcards show both traditional and modern subjects.
The MFA has also put much of the collection online -http://www.mfa.org/master/sub.asp?key=41&subkey=837

This book is simply superb, and you do not have to be a postcard collector to appreciate the miniature works
of art featured here - covered are history, Russo-Japanese war, artist cards, art nouveau cards, art deco
cards, comic cards, advertising cards, etc. Many of these amazing illustrations show traditional Japanese
woodblock art used to produce surprisingly Western-style images. I am completely blown-away by this book.
An absolutely stunning visual experience - words fail me!
The book itself is extremely well produced and the quality of the illustrations must surely match that of
the originals. Although it is a very recent publication, I have no hesitation in marking it as 'collectable'
in the tags field.
The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston must be some heap good museum - the good burghers of Boston
are very lucky...
I don't really collect Japanese postcards, but I think that I'm about to start...… (mehr)
