Description
"This book is a student version of a scholarly catalog – it was written by RISD students to accompany the Japanese prints’ exhibition they have curated at the RISD Museum as the final project for 2013 spring semester course in art history. The idea of the course was to put emphasis on active learning from objects – not only through looking at the originals and analyzing them during visits to the museum but by trying a hand at various responsibilities of a museum curator. The Department of Prints, Drawings and Photographs of the RISD Museum welcomed this experimental course and accommodated the large class with cordial hospitality on several occasions. ...
It is the hope of the students – authors of this catalog (and of their instructor) that the readers of the book will find its content interesting and useful, furthering understanding of the widely appreciated ukiyo-e prints." -- Foreword, Along the Tokaido with Two Brushes
