註釋Robert O. Muller can be considered the most important collector in the world of 20th century Japanese prints. He amassed over 4500 designs, tracing back the artistic developments of the past century to the Meiji period (1868-1912). His holdings, now in the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery of Art in Washington, DC include the finest possible examples of artists that specialized in the portrayal of female beauty such as Hashiguchi Goyo (1880-1921), Ito Shinsui(1898-1972) and Torii Kotondo (1900-1976), the earliest and best works of the two major landscape artists Kawasui Hasui (1883-1957) and Hiroshi Yoshida (1876-1950) as well as numerous works by other, less famous artists providing a comprehensive and fascinating overview of the Shin hanga ('New Print') movement. Robert O. Muller's exquisite taste and critical attitude has resulted in a collection in the finest imaginable condition. The Arthur M. Sackler Gallery of Art stages the first major exhibition from this collection in the months of November andDecember of 2004. It includes essays by James Ulak, Joan Mirviss and Amy Newland. This catalog accompanies the first exhibition from the donation to the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery of Art of over 4000 prints by the American collector Robert O. Muller, to be held November 6 2004-2 January 2005.
