Swann’s lavishly illustrated volume is a survey of the arts of East Asia--of more than 3,000 years of Chinese, Korean, and Japanese painting, sculpture, pottery, and drawing. The author describes the originality and vigor of these three distinct national cultures, but brings out as well the way they were affected by other civilizations and by each other.
