"pname":"Collection Description",
"pvalue":"The core of the collection is formed byBuddhist texts from the early Edo Period (17th-18th centuries) and illustrated books from the late Edo and Meiji Periods (mid-18th century-early 20th century).Apart from Buddhist works there was no systematic, subject-based collecting.
However, as might be expected in the library of an art museum there are comparatively large numbers of picture albums (gafu) and copybooks (edehon). The collection also includes topographical works (meisho zue), illustrated books, kusazōshi, pattern books (hinagatabon), historical works, poetry anthologies, dictionaries, war tales, essays etc. Among the artists and authors represented are: Hokusai, Katsukawa Shunshō, Nishikawa Sukenobu, Harunobu, Hiroshige, Kyōsai, Bunpō, Kyōden, Bakin and Tanehiko. Recent donations of botanical works are classed as rare books."
