"The Tale of Genji: Its Literature and Art" As there is no colophon, the publisher, year of publication, and other background information are unknown. Please refer to the table of contents (photo 4) for an approximate overview of the contents. There are two fold-out color plates (photos 5 and 6), but the rest are mostly monochrome illustrations. There are stains on the top edge (photo 10). There is a mark on the upper left of the cover where a sticker has been removed (photo 11). Overall, there is some wear and tear. We hope you will consider purchasing this book, understanding that it has been stored at home for a long time.
