The Mirror, the Mask, and the Masterpiece Bundle – Word on Fire。The Mirror, the Mask, and the Masterpiece Bundle – Word on Fire。Echoes of Truth: Reflections for a Meaningful Life: Ogunleye, Femi。Telling the Truth Book by Ted Perzanowski。This publications shows how scholary investigation of Japanese photography in recent years has entered an important transitional stage-moving beyond it's focus on the introduction of new discoveries and descriptions of collections, to a more sophisticated investigation of photography in historical and cultural contexts.At one time marginalised as either a practical technique or amateur art form, photography has now earned full recognition as an area of scholarly inquiry.It now invites reflection on issues of visuality, technology, and national identity in Japanese art during its transition to modernity as well as in contemporary society.The book provides an incisive look at ancient Japanese photographic techniques.It seems to be an excellent reference book for the study of photography in Japan at that time, based on the photographs inserted in this book.
