In this attractive, oversized (10x12") volume, full-page color plates of superb quality present all 100 scenes in Japanese prints by the artists, with a description of the story found in the scene on the facing page. Translations of the inscriptions, signature, and seals on each print are included in each entry. The authors relate the story depicted, indicating variations from other prints or poems, and aspects of the figure's dress, pose, and enactment of the scene. A lengthy introduction describes the series and its production in print. Both authors are print collectors; Mostow teaches Asian studies at the U. of British Columbia, Canada; Herwig is editor of Andon, the Bulletin of the Society for Japanese Art.
