四十多年来，罗伯特和贝茜•芬伯格收藏了一批美国**的日本江户时代的绘画。这些藏品以其规模、非凡的质量和全面性而闻名，几乎代表了江户时代（1615-1868年）的每一个风格流派——从临波流派的华丽装饰作品到丸山四郎流派的明快，从 "浮世绘"到所谓的怪人的创新墨水画，此外还有中世纪和现代早期的雕塑。悬挂的卷轴、屏风、手卷、相册和扇子画：这些物品既令人惊叹又丰富多彩。

The sophistication and variety of painting in Japan’s Edo period, as seen through a preeminent US collection

Over more than four decades, Robert and Betsy Feinberg have assembled the finest private collection of Edo-period Japanese painting in the United States. The collection is notable for its size, its remarkable quality, and its comprehensiveness. It represents virtually every stylistic lineage of the Edo-period (1615–1868)―from the gorgeous decorative works of the Rinpa school to the luminous clarity of the Maruyama-Shijō school, from the “pictures of the floating world” (ukiyo-e) to the inky innovations of the so-called eccentrics―in addition to sculpture from the medieval and early modern periods. Hanging scrolls, folding screens, handscrolls, albums, and fan paintings: the objects are as breathtaking as they are varied. This catalogue’s 12 contributors, including established names in the field alongside emerging voices, use the latest scholarship to offer sensitive close readings that bring these remarkable works to life.
