Description

Read Description

"Covers the full range of Japanese flower-arrangement styles: 1) the old classical--massive, monumental, awe-inspiring; 2) the classical--now austere, now intimate, but always seeking the essential beauty of the flower; 3) the modern--freely creative, uninhibited; and 4) the avant-garde--'Shocking!' some say of this 'flower arrangement of tomorrow.'"-- Book jacket.
