About this product

Product Information

Superb Yokai images from the world's leading museums and private collections! Japan's vast pantheon of supernatural creatures includes demons ( yokai ), monsters, ogres ( oni ), ghosts ( yurei ) and magicians--mythical beings from folklore and popular culture which continue to thrill readers of traditional stories and manga today. This richly illustrated book by Andreas Marks, the leading authority on Japanese woodblock prints, presents authentic illustrations and descriptions of 100 different creatures, including: Bakeneko : Monster cats in human form who lick lamp oil and prey on humans born in the year of the Rat Han'nya : Female demons with sharp and pointed horns, metallic eyes and a smirking smile Hihi : Large ape-like monsters who live in the mountains and have superhuman strength, enabling them to kidnap and kill humans Mikoshi-nyudo : Yokai with an enormously extended necks who appear only at night And many more! The striking visual examples in this book are drawn from the rich canon of early Japanese prints, books, and paintings--sourced from leading museums, libraries and private collections worldwide. They show the "original" forms and appearances of the creatures which form the basis for all subsequent depictions. Also included are two long handscrolls from the Minneapolis Institute of Art ( A Collection of Monsters and Night Parade of One Hundred Demons ) which are reproduced here for the very first time. Prints and Paintings sourced from the following list of museums, libraries and private collections: Art Institute of Chicago Christie's, London & New York The Cleveland Museum of Art Harold B. Lee Library, Brigham Young University Kyoto University, Main Library Library of Congress Los Angeles County Museum of Art The Metropolitan Museum of Art Minneapolis Institute of Art National Museum of Japanese History Princeton University Library Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam Smithsonian Libraries

Reviews
"Finding one's bearings in this wealth of fiends can be a challenge though, especially for Western readers who are not familiar with the imagery and symbolism of Japanese art. This is where Marks' latest volume, Japanese Yokai and Other Supernatural Beings, comes in handy: It describes 100 of the country's most ghastly creatures in great detail. It is also lavishly illustrated, primarily with ukiyo-e woodblock prints, but also with the odd painting here and there....It is an excellent introduction to the field." -- The Japan Times
