The Potter's Brush is an exploration of the development of Kenzan's distinctive pottery, as well as the work of his successors who appropriated his designs. Lavishly illustrated throughout, The Potter's Brush shows how nearly two centuries of innovation produced one of the first `designer brands', and will appeal to ceramicists, collectors and lovers of Japanese art.
