Menpes Describes Japan Art Trade and An Ideal Workshop
The article quotes Menpes on Japanese merchants and art value. He states half the works in England are worthless imitations and real fine pieces rarely leave Japan. He highlights a band of deco rations shipped for his London home, created by brilliant craftsmen who worked in harmony, making his house appear as if by one master.
