A set of three exhibition catalogs from major Western modern art masters held in Japan from the 1970s to the 1990s! All are official catalogs from the time, and their content is of high value as art historical materials. 【Set Contents】 ① Degas Exhibition Catalog (1976) The official catalog of the Edgar Degas exhibition held at the Seibu Museum, Ikebukuro, and other venues in 1976. It covers subjects that symbolize Degas' art, such as ballerinas (dancers), horse racing, and bathers. The work on the cover of the catalog is a masterpiece painting known as "Étoile" or "Star of the Stage." This depicts the glamorous stage while also hinting at the harsh social conditions surrounding the dancers of the time. Approximately 90 pages including oil paintings, pastels, sketches, and sculptures. ② "CÉZANNE and Japan" Exhibition Catalog The official catalog of the Paul Cézanne exhibition held at the Yokohama Museum of Art in 1999 and the Aichi Prefectural Museum of Art in 2000.

Highly regarded as a crossroads of art history, modern Japanese art, and intellectual history, it is a valuable book as a research material. ③ Whistler Exhibition 1987–88 Catalog The official catalog of the James Abbott McNeill Whistler exhibition held on a nationwide tour from 1987 to 1988. The cover features "Battersea Reach from Lindsey Houses."
