Hello all,
I got a quick and super helpful response from Kristi Yuzuki at LACMA -- thank you Kristi!

The book is in Japanese, though English text includes illustration captions and an index of works/illustrations with titles and dimensions.

For such a visual book, this may be plenty to make the book useful to our users!

All best,
Kathy

Hello all,
I am considering purchasing Kasamatsu Shiro: The Complete Woodblock Prints ( Tōkyō: Abe Shuppan, 2021) for MICA's collection. I'm referencing this Worldcat record: http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/1236390657

Can anyone whose library owns this check if there is English text included with the Japanese? All of the catalog records I can find either say Japanese language or do not specify. However the title being also in English makes me think maybe there is some English included...

Worldcat holdings include:
Library of Congress
Princeton U
Metropolitan Museum of Art
Yale U
Cleveland Museum of Art
Harvard U
U of Michigan
Getty Research Institute
LACMA

Thank you!
Kathy Cowan
